Resumo: | Since the first cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection were reported in the city of Wuhan, China, globally, during the pandemic, countries experienced waves of SARS-CoV-2 infections, with a significant impact on COVID-19 morbidity and mortality, due to the worrying variants of circulating viruses that have emerged over time, including Mozambique. In addition to public health measures taken since the initial stages of the pandemic, such as case identification and isolation, closure of schools and gathering places, social distancing, and personal and collective hygiene and protection measures, national COVID-19 vaccination programs have been put in place, globally and in the country. With the introduction of vaccination, it was hoped to achieve more effective control of the pandemic. However, this has not happened, some challenges remain. Thus, in this article, based on a review of documents and epidemiological data available on digital platforms, the evolution of the epidemic in Mozambique is described and compared to the African continent and the world in general, and some of the possible explanations for the observed evolution of the COVID-19 pandemic are presented. On the other hand, some considerations are presented around the progress made and the challenges that persist in the country and at the global level with the introduction of the COVID-19 vaccination program. |

SARS-Co V-2 infection in Mozambique: epidemiology and advances made with vaccination against COVID-19Infection par le SARS-CoV-2 au Mozambique: épidémiologie et progrès accomplis en matière de vaccination contre la COVID-19Infeção por SARS-CoV-2 em Moçambique: a epidemiologia e os avanços alcançados com a vacinação contra a COVID-19Since the first cases of SARS-CoV-2 infection were reported in the city of Wuhan, China, globally, during the pandemic, countries experienced waves of SARS-CoV-2 infections, with a significant impact on COVID-19 morbidity and mortality, due to the worrying variants of circulating viruses that have emerged over time, including Mozambique.

En plus des mesures de santé publique prises depuis les premiers stades de la pandémie, telles que l’identification des cas et l’isolement, la fermeture des écoles et des lieux de rassemblement, la distanciation sociale et les mesures d’hygiène et de protection personnelles et collectives, des programmes nationaux de vaccination contre la COVID-19 ont été mis en place, au niveau mondial et dans le pays. Avec l’introduction de la vaccination, on espérait parvenir à un contrôle plus efficace de la pandémie. Cependant, cela ne s’est pas produit, certains défis persistent. Ainsi, dans cet article, basé sur une revue de documents et de données épidémiologiques disponibles sur les plateformes numériques, l’évolution de l’épidémie au Mozambique est décrite et comparée au continent africain et au monde en général, et certaines des explications possibles de l’évolution observée de la pandémie de COVID-19 sont présentées. D’autre part, certaines considérations sont présentées autour des avancées réalisées et des défis persistants dans le pays et au niveau mondial avec l’introduction du programme de vaccination contre la COVID-19.Desde que os primeiros casos da infecção por SARS-CoV-2 foram reportados na Cidade de Wuhan (China), mundialmente, no decurso da pandemia, foram reportadas vagas ou ondas de infeções por SARS-CoV-2, com significativo impacto na morbidade e mortalidade por COVID-19, sobretudo causadas por circulação de variantes de preocupação do vírus que emergiram ao longo do tempo, incluindo em Moçambique. Para além de medidas de Saúde Pública implementadas desde as fases inicias da pandemia, como identificação de casos e seu isolamento, encerramento das escolas e outros lugares de aglomeração de pessoas, distanciamento social e medidas de higiene e proteção individual e coletiva, foram introduzidos, ao nível global e no país, os Programas Nacionais de Vacinação Contra a COVID-19. Com a introdução da vacinação, esperava-se conseguir um controle mais eficaz da pandemia. Contudo, isso não aconteceu e ainda persistem alguns desafios. Assim, neste artigo, com base na revisão documental e dos dados epidemiológicos disponíveis nas plataformas digitais, descreve-se e compara-se a evolução da epidemia em Moçambique em relação ao continente Africano e o Mundo no geral e são avançadas algumas das possíveis explicações para a evolução observada da pandemia da COVID-19. Por outro lado, algumas considerações são apresentadas em torno dos avanços alcançados e os desafios persistentes no país e ao nível global com a introdução do programa de vacinação contra a COVID-19.Universidade Nova de Lisboa2022-10-22info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.25761/anaisihmt.432oai:ojs.anaisihmt.com:article/432Anais do Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical; Vol 21 (2022): Estratégias de vacinação em contexto pandémico; 90-98Anais do Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical; v. 21 (2022): Estratégias de vacinação em contexto pandémico; 90-982184-23100303-7762reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttp://anaisihmt.com/index.php/ihmt/article/view/432https://doi.org/10.25761/anaisihmt.432http://anaisihmt.com/index.php/ihmt/article/view/432/357http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSidat, MohsinCapitine, Igor2022-10-26T05:45:21Zoai:ojs.anaisihmt.com:article/432Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:14:03.235636Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
