In the context of the coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, all mass gathering (MG) events have been cancelled. The Grand Magal took place on October 6, 2020, in Touba, Senegal, which was the only MG event organized in 2020. This Muslim pilgrimage gathers about four million Muslim Mourides from Senegal and beyond. No significant increase in COVID-19 cases was therefore observed at the national level in the weeks following the Grand Magal. This successful strategy is an invitation to better promote community commitments by public authorities in their various strategies.
在2019冠状病毒病（COVID-19）大流行的背景下，所有大规模聚集活动均已取消。2020年10月6日在塞内加尔图巴举行了大圣会，这是2020年举办的唯一一次大规模聚集活动。这次穆斯林朝圣活动吸引了来自塞内加尔及其他地区约400万穆里德派穆斯林。因此，在大圣会之后的几周内，全国范围内未观察到COVID-19病例显著增加。这一成功策略促使公共当局在其各种战略中更好地推动社区承诺。
