While in some countries the population is well screened for COVID-19, I miss screening data for less developed countries (e.g. in West- and East Africa). Is this due to a lack of reporting or is much less screening done in these countries? Are any public data available?

Dear Dietrich,
The following site that I follow gives alot of detail and stats that is updated regularly for all the countries. The numbers for some poor nations are low, I guess presumably due to lack of finances to pay for the test. Best wishes, Refik
