Why is there a paucity of clinical trials in Africa? COMMENT

S. D. Taylor-Robinson et al.

Summary: Due to neocolonial attitudes and lack of research ethics committees, there are disproportionately fewer clinical trials conducted in the Global South. In the era of the COVID-19 pandemic, more relevant population research and clinical trials should be conducted in Africa to extrapolate to a population level. Medical leadership in African nations should take ownership of their medical ethics agendas to facilitate international clinical trial participation for the continent as a whole.
