Epicentre’s Scientific Day invites you to discover the range of activities and its epidemiology and research projects in humanitarian situations.

This year, the COVID-19 pandemic will be the subject of a session as Epicentre has been working since the beginning to assess the situation in MSF intervention sites and has also launched sero-prevalence studies among people in great precarious situations in France and some areas of the African continent to evaluate the real impact of the pandemic.

Agenda of the session on COVID-19:

• Patient’s epidemiological and medical characteristics in MSF interventions. Anaïs Broban
• Focus on Afghanistan and Yemen. Amna Haider and Flavio Finger 
• Clinical description and outcome of patients admitted in the MSF CoVid-19 treatment center, Herat, Afghanistan. Elisabeth Poulet
• Seroprevalence survey (Kenya, Sudan, Côte d’Ivoire, DRC, Yemen, Mali, Niger). Etienne Gignoux
