RÉSUMÉ
L’épidémie du nouveau coronavirus (COVID19), apparue en Chine en décembre 2019, s’est propagée en moins de trois mois à travers le monde via les moyens de déplacements des personnes et biens. Nous rapportons ici le tout premier cas de COVID19 au Togo, la description de sa prise en charge et l'organisation de la réponse à la pandémie de COVID 19 dans le pays. Compte tenu de l'évolution de l'épidémie en Chine, la collaboration entre les scientifiques, les autorités politico-administratives et les médias peut avoir un impact local sur l'épidémie.
