Description
The first COVID-19 case in Africa, reaching the continent through travellers returning from Asia, Europe and the United States, was reported in Egypt on 14 February, 2020. There have been over 4 million confirmed cases, over 3 million recoveries and 108,064 deaths. Having the right knowledge of self-medicating during the COVID-19 pandemic and responsible self-medicating practices is important which could be achieved through counselling. Counselling is the process which helps individuals to know their abilities, interest and a capacity that will help in the encounter of problems faced by them. Counselling is pertinent to COVID- 19 because of the fact that it has no treatment yet but can be restrained via non pharmacological measures. This study therefore discussed the role of counselling in management of COVID-19.
