As a coronavirus continues to spread around the world, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation announced its donation of $10 million towards combating the outbreak. The $10 million is in aid to frontline responders fighting the virus in China and Africa.

The outbreak has sickened at least 2,800 people and killed at least 81.

Of that total, the foundation is giving $5 million to support the response in China, while the other $5 million is going to the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for screening and crisis preparedness there.

The money will be spent on “emergency funds and corresponding technical support to help frontline responders in China and Africa accelerate their efforts to contain the global spread of 2019-nCoV,” the foundation revealed.

In China, the $5 million in funding will be distributed among public and private partners that the organization already works with, including China’s National Health Commission, Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

While the money going to the Africa Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is for “technical support to implement the screening and treatment of suspected cases, laboratory confirmation of 2019-nCoV diagnoses, and the safe isolation and care of identified cases,”

The Gates Foundation focuses mostly on improving global health and fighting poverty. It’s one of the largest private philanthropic foundations in the world, with a $46.8 billion endowment.
