COVID-19 is now impacting every country in Africa and healthcare workers (HCWs) across the continent remain susceptible to professional burnout. We designed a 43-question survey addressing multiple aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic. The survey was anonymous, distributed via email and phone messaging to 13 countries in Africa. We obtained 489 analyzable responses. 49% off HCWs reported a decrease in income, with the majority experiencing between 1-25% salary reduction. Sixty-six percent reported some access to personal protective equipment (PPE), 20% had no access to PPE and only 14% reported proper access. Strikingly, the percentage reporting never feeling depressed changed from 61% before the pandemic to 31% during the pandemic, with an increase in daily depression from 2% to 20%. We found no association between depression and change in income, household size, availability of PPE or lockdown. Safety concerns related to stigma from being HCWs affected 56% of respondents.
COVID-19 现在正在影响非洲的每个国家，非洲大陆的医护人员（HCWs）仍然容易受到职业倦怠的影响。我们设计了一个包含 43 个问题的调查，涉及 COVID-19 大流行的多个方面。该调查是匿名的，通过电子邮件和电话消息分发给非洲的 13 个国家。我们收到了 489 份可分析的回复。49%的医护人员报告收入减少，其中大多数人的工资减少了 1-25%。66%的人报告有一些个人防护设备（PPE），20%的人没有 PPE，只有 14%的人报告有适当的 PPE。令人惊讶的是，报告从未感到沮丧的百分比从大流行前的 61%变为大流行期间的 31%，每日抑郁的比例从 2%增加到 20%。我们没有发现抑郁与收入变化、家庭规模、PPE 可用性或封锁之间的关联。与医护人员身份相关的耻辱感带来的安全问题影响了 56%的受访者。
