The objective of our study was to establish the epidemiological profile of COVID-19 in Tombouctou.
This was a descriptive cross-sectional study of COVID-19 surveillance data from Tombouctou from April 3 to October 1, 2020. Our variables of interest were extracted from the surveillance database and analyzed with Excel 2013. The frequencies, rate, and ratio were computed.
Overall, 1851 suspects from all districts of the region were screened by RT-PCR, including 572 confirmed, which indicate a positivity rate of 30.90%. The 15-34 age group was the most represented with 48% of the confirmed cases. The sex ratio (male / female) of confirmed cases was 2.67. The city of Tombouctou was the epicenter of COVID-19. The Tombouctou region had a detection rate of around 2‰ (1851/928,000) and peaked between weeks 22 and 23 with a case fatality of 2.8%.
Young people and men were most likely to be infected with COVID-19. We recommend increasing awareness of compliance with barrier measures.
我们研究的目的是确定廷巴克图地区新冠肺炎的流行病学特征。
这是一项对2020年4月3日至10月1日廷巴克图地区新冠肺炎监测数据的描述性横断面研究。我们感兴趣的变量从监测数据库中提取,并用Excel 2013进行分析。计算了频率、发病率和比例。
总体而言,该地区所有区的1851名疑似病例接受了逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)检测,其中572例确诊,阳性率为30.90%。15至34岁年龄组占确诊病例的比例最高,为48%。确诊病例的性别比(男性/女性)为2.67。廷巴克图市是新冠肺炎的疫情中心。廷巴克图地区的检测率约为2‰(1851/928,000),在第22至23周达到峰值,病死率为2.8%。
年轻人和男性感染新冠肺炎的可能性最大。我们建议提高对遵守防护措施的认识。
