Africans Rally to Stop the Spread of the Pandemic

The latest action in this regard is that of Facebook and the International Red Cross and the Red Crescent Movement. Today they launch #AfricaTogether. A digital awareness campaign to include performances by artists such as Ayo, Femi Kuti, Ferre Gola, Salatiel, Serge Beynaud, Youssou N’Dour among others, as well as prevention messages developed with health experts from the Red Cross and Red Crescent.
