Preprints and other research publications in line with Covid19 information are still low in Africa despite the increasing global Open Access sites for researchers.

At AfricArXiv, we are a pan African based platform curating and facilitating the publication of all Covid19 related research articles and preprints via our partner Science Open’s repository. With their easy to use algorithms, you can find research about the existing challenges and achievements obtained by the efforts of various stakeholders in combating Covid19 on the continent. We are currently at 1194 articles, and this will continue to grow with time. We encourage all researchers to submit their work for review and publication through our open access repository. Uploading preprint manuscripts is free via: scienceopen.com/collection/africarxiv.
