COVID-19

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease that was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, the capital of China's Hubei province, and has since spread globally, resulting in the ongoing 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic. About five months passed and more than 3.3 million cases have been reported across 187 countries and territories, resulting in more than 235,000 deaths, and more than 1.03 million people have recovered.

Egypt

Egypt is one of the countries that is suffering from the pandemic and one of the top 10 countries in the death rate compared to the number of confirmed cases. The first COVID-19 case reported was in February 2020 for a tourist, Since that, number of confirmed cases reached 5895 cases with 406 deaths

What's different in this dataset?

I decided to introduce this dataset after observed that all dataset in our hands are cumulative so I calculated numbers day by day. Also gave the information about the number of cases that have changes in their PCR results from positive to negative and the lockdown status in the country

Acknowledgements

The Ministry of Health and Population that reports the daily numbers clearly, Thanks for your efforts willing the victory during this war against the pandemic.

Egypt registered its first coronavirus (COVID-19) casualty on March 8, 2020. As of September 30, 2021, 17,331 victims lost their life due to the pandemic. Moreover, the highest daily count of deaths in Egypt was registered on the June 15, 2020, with 97 daily mortalities. As of the same date, Egypt recorded roughly 304.5 thousand cases of infections with the virus, while 256.9 thousand recovered.

Context

Since the beginning of the covid19 pandemic, I have collected daily the coivd19 data from the daily report issued by the Egyptian ministry of health in order to know more about the spread of the virus and to assess the pandemic situation in my homeland Egypt.

Content

The Data consists of several columns, and the content of each column is as follow: New cases: The New cases infected by covid 19 cases on that day. New Death: Number of people that died due to covid19 on that day. New Recovered: Number of people that recovered from covid19 on that day. New Active cases: Difference between the sum of New Recovered and New Death and New cases New Active cases= New cases - (New Recovered + New Death) The Data is from 13/5/2020 to 9/7/2021

As of November 18, 2022, the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases in Africa amounted to around 12.7 million, which represented around two percent of the infections around the world. By the same date, coronavirus cases globally were over 640 million, deaths were over six million, while approximately 620 million people recovered from the disease. On the African continent, South Africa was the most drastically affected country, with more than 3.6 million infections.

The African continent fighting the pandemic  

The African continent first came in contact with the coronavirus pandemic on February 14, 2020, in the northernmost part, particularly Egypt. Since then, the different governments took severe restrictive measures to try to curb the spread of the disease. Moreover, the official numbers of the African continent are significantly lower than those of Europe, North America, South America, and Asia. Nevertheless, the infectious disease still managed to have its effects on several countries. South Africa had the highest number of deaths. Morocco and Tunisia, the second and third most affected in Africa, recorded 16,002 and 27,824 deaths, respectively, while Egypt registered at 24,132 as of March 02, 2022.

The light at the end of the tunnel  

Although the African countries still have a long way to fully combat the virus, vaccination programs have been rolled out in the majority of Africa. Also, according to a survey, public opinion in several African countries shows a high willingness to be vaccinated, with Ethiopia having numbers as high as 94 percent. As of March 2022, Egypt was the country administering the highest number of vaccine doses, however, Seychelles had the highest per rate per 100 people .

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is going to have repercussions on most of the countries worldwide, as is the case for Egypt as well. The Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was grew by *** percent in 2020 and was estimated to grow *** percent in 2021. In fact, Egypt was one of the few African countries showing a positive real GDP growth rate and the only in the North African region in 2020, regardless of the negative effects of the pandemic. Moreover, it is projected that in 2022 the Egyptian real GDP would grow by *** percent.

With regards to Egyptian cumulative coronavirus cases, Egypt is the fourth most hit country in the continent with ******* cases as of early 2022. Tourism receipts are believed to be drastically affected, along with remittances.

Project Tycho datasets contain case counts for reported disease conditions for countries around the world. The Project Tycho data curation team extracts these case counts from various reputable sources, typically from national or international health authorities, such as the US Centers for Disease Control or the World Health Organization. These original data sources include both open- and restricted-access sources. For restricted-access sources, the Project Tycho team has obtained permission for redistribution from data contributors. All datasets contain case count data that are identical to counts published in the original source and no counts have been modified in any way by the Project Tycho team, except for aggregation of individual case count data into daily counts when that was the best data available for a disease and location. The Project Tycho team has pre-processed datasets by adding new variables, such as standard disease and location identifiers, that improve data interpretability. We also formatted the data into a standard data format. All geographic locations at the country and admin1 level have been represented at the same geographic level as in the data source, provided an ISO code or codes could be identified, unless the data source specifies that the location is listed at an inaccurate geographical level. For more information about decisions made by the curation team, recommended data processing steps, and the data sources used, please see the README that is included in the dataset download ZIP file.

Background and objectivesThe World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus disease-19 (COVID-19) pandemic on March 11, 2020. The health care system faced tremendous challenges in providing ethical and high-quality care. The impact of COVID-19 on urological practices varied widely worldwide, including in Arab countries. This study aimed to compare the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on urology practice in Egypt, the KSA, and the UAE during the first year of the pandemic.MethodsThis sub-analysis assessed the demographics and COVID-19’s effects on urological practice in terms of adjustments to hospital policy, including outpatient consultations, the management of elective and urgent surgical cases, and the continuation of education across the three countries. The availability of personal protective equipment (PPE) and urologists’ emotional, physical, and verbal intimidation during COVID-19 were also compared.ResultsRegarding the impact on hospital policy, consultations replaced by telemedicine were significantly higher in the KSA (36.15%), followed by the UAE (33.3%), then Egypt (10.4%) (P = 0.008). Elective cases requiring ICU admission were 65.1% in Egypt, 45.2% in the KSA, and 58.2% in the UAE and were performed only in high-risk patients. PPE was freely available in 20.8% of the Egyptian hospitals compared to 83.3% in the KSA and 81.8% in the UAE. Online courses were significantly higher in Egypt (70.8%), followed by the UAE (53%) and the KSA (41.7%) (P = 0.02). Emotional intimidation was higher than verbal intimidation, representing 80%, 75.9%, and 76% in the UAE, KSA, and Egypt, respectively.ConclusionThis sub-analysis outlined significant hospital policy changes across the three Arab countries. Exposure to emotional, verbal, and physical intimidation was observed. The development of teleconsultations and online platforms for educational purposes was observed.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has become a major public health crisis worldwide, and the Eastern Mediterranean is one of the most affected areas.Materials and Methods: We use a data-driven approach to assess the characteristics, situation, prevalence, and current intervention actions of the COVID-19 pandemic. We establish a spatial model of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic to project the trend and time distribution of the total confirmed cases and growth rate of daily confirmed cases based on the current intervention actions.Results: The results show that the number of daily confirmed cases, number of active cases, or growth rate of daily confirmed cases of COVID-19 are exhibiting a significant downward trend in Qatar, Egypt, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia under the current interventions, although the total number of confirmed cases and deaths is still increasing. However, it is predicted that the number of total confirmed cases and active cases in Iran and Iraq may continue to increase.Conclusion: The COVID-19 pandemic in Qatar, Egypt, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia will be largely contained if interventions are maintained or tightened. The future is not optimistic, and the intervention response must be further strengthened in Iran and Iraq. The aim of this study is to contribute to the prevention and control of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Background: COVID-19 causes a critical occupational risk to frontline healthcare workers ‎‎(HCWs) who respond to the pandemic, which places them at an increased risk of infection ‎exposure. A public health priority is to understand how transmission takes place to protect this ‎vulnerable group of HCWs. This study was carried out to estimate the incidence of self-reported ‎COVID-19 infection among physicians and its possible associated factors. Methods: An online ‎survey was initiated to collect sociodemographic, occupational, clinical data and describe affected ‎physicians' diagnoses. Results: The self-reported incidence of COVID-19 infection was found to ‎be 65.4% among studied physicians. The significant independent predictors of COVID-19 ‎infection were a smoker, frontline physician, having contact with a COVID-19 case, and working ‎for less than ten years [ARR (95% CI): 3.0(1.6-5.7), 2.3(1.4-3.8), 2.1(1.2-3.6), and 1.8(1.2-2.9); ‎respectively]. Conclusions: The incidence of COVID-19 infection among Egyptian physicians is ‎relatively high. ‎ Key words: COVID-19; physicians; pandemic; incidence‎

On March 6, 2021, confirmed cases of coronavirus COVID-19 on a single day in South Africa amounted to 8,078. Total cases reached 3,684,319, which is the highest number of confirmed cases compared to other African countries. As of the same date, there were 99,543 casualties and 3,560,217 recoveries in the country.

The most affected country in the continent

Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic in the continent, starting in Egypt on February 14, 2020, South Africa has been harshly affected, quickly becoming the worst-hit country in Africa. Gauteng, the province with Johannesburg as its capital, was the most affected regionally with over 1.2 million cases as of early March, 2022. As well as its health effects, the pandemic had a strong impact on businesses with nine out of ten businesses operating in different industries claiming that the turnover was below the normal range they used to receive as of April 2020.

Vaccination efforts

Countries around the world are racing to get their populations vaccinated to be able to go back to normal. As the fourth wave hits South Africa in December 2021, and as the different stronger variants emerge, the country is also trying to vaccinate its population faster to minimize the severe health effects. After facing a harsh start to its vaccination program due to the ineffectiveness of the AstraZeneca vaccine to the Beta variant also known as B.1.351, on May 17, 2021, South Africa began the second phase of its vaccination program, opening it for people who are 60 and over. Previously, the so-called Sisonke Program was rolled out as the first phase to ensure the vaccination of the health workers protecting them from the pandemic. As of March 6, 2022, Gauteng was the region with the highest number of vaccinated individuals followed by Western Cape with around 9.02 million and five million inoculations, respectively.

As of November 18, 2022, the overall deaths due to coronavirus (COVID-19) in Africa reached 257,984. South Africa recorded the highest number of casualties. With over 100,000 deaths, the country accounted for roughly 40 percent of the total. Tunisia was the second most affected on the continent, as the virus made almost 30,000 victims in the nation, around 11 percent of the overall deaths in Africa. Egypt accounted for around 10 percent of the casualties on the continent, with 24,600 victims. By the same date, Africa had recorded more than 12 million cases of COVID-19.
