COVID-19 Resources Hub

These guidelines are intended to help providers with the evaluation and treatment of severe cases of Covid-19 in children. Covid-19 and Multisystem inflammatory syndrome (MISC) in children have overlapping features. This resource helps to distinguish these two pathways.

85 potential therapeutic options are included within this database for COVID-19. This is the seventeenth edition and will continuously be updated as more research is released. The database is helpful for investigators, policy makers, and prescribers to ensure management of COVID-19 is based on the latest research.

These presentations and discussion are part of the COVID19 clinical updates webinars hosted by USAID’s Sustaining Technical and Analytic Resources and UCSF, with support from USAIDs O2 Ecosystem Initiative.

This webinar discusses Pulse oximetry - including the fundamentals of how it works, limitations in the technology (including skin pigmentation effects), and practical aspects of implementation including implications for oxygen consumption in resource-variable settings.

This searchable directory lists commercially available antigen RDTs and point-of-care molecular tests for COVID-19. Manufacturer performance data (sensitivity and specificity) are included, where known, alongside data from independent evaluations conducted by FIND, where applicable.

Learn how to plan for and establish COVID-19 testing in your laboratory to ensure accurate, timely and impactful results.

- L’état des lieux de la pandémie de COVID-19 et le rôle du diagnostic dans la riposte
- Les différents tests de diagnostic et leur utilisation dans le cadre de l’épidémie de COVID-19
- Les recommandations actuelles sur l’utilisation des tests de diagnostic de la COVID-19 et les stratégies de dépistage
- Les modalités de mise en place et de déploiement à grande échelle du diagnostic de la COVID-19, et les éléments essentiels pour garantir la sécurité, la qualité et l’impact des services de diagnostic

By the end of this course, learners will be able to:
- Identify different types of diagnostics for COVID-19 testing and how best to implement in low and middle-income countries
- Identify key technical considerations for testing and how to apply them to ensure safe and quality-assured testing
- Develop an understanding of global recommendations on use of COVID-19 diagnostics and testing strategies
