SARS-CoV-2 and self-medication in Cameroon: a mathematical model

SARS-CoV-2 and self-medication in Cameroon: a mathematical model

Self-medication is an important initial response to illness in Africa. This mode of medication is often done with the help of African traditional medicines. Because of the misconception that African traditional medicines can cure/prevent all diseases, some Africans may opt for COVID-19 prevention an...
