The COVID-19 pandemic in Algeria was a part of the worldwide pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The virus was confirmed to have spread to Algeria in February 2020.^[3] In response, the Algerian government ordered curfews, restricted gatherings, canceled public events, and issued stay-at-home orders between February and June. Some measures were re-implemented in later months in response to new waves of infections. A mass vaccination campaign against COVID-19 began in January 2021.^[4] The pandemic disrupted anti-government protests, which largely halted in 2020 and resumed in 2021.^[5]^[6] 6,881 deaths were officially recorded by the Algerian government through 2022,^[7] although the World Health Organization estimated over 21,000 deaths had occurred through 2021.^[8]
