Seven people have died from Covid-19 in Africa — four in Algeria, two in Egypt and one in Morocco.
Many African countries are shutting their airports and land borders to keep out people from countries that have a high number of coronavirus cases.
Hundreds of international flights have been canceled, schools have closed and travelers from coronavirus-hit countries have been restricted or, in some cases, banned from visiting some countries in Africa.
Egypt, with the highest number of coronavirus cases in Africa, announced it was suspending flights from all its airports starting Thursday to stop the spread of the virus, Ahram Online reported.
