Abstract
The paper documents experiences and lesson learned in responding to COVID-19 pandemic in Eswatini with the support of the Emergency Medical Teams. WHO databases, operation reports and hospitalization records were reviewed. The WHO Emergency medical Teams built the capacity for the local response teams in Eswatini. The conclusion is that following the intervention of the WHO Emergency Response Teams, Eswatini is better prepared to respond to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and future outbreaks.
