Minister for Health, Kwabena Mintah Akandoh, is slated to deliver a comprehensive briefing to Parliament on July 1, shedding light on the prevailing COVID-19 situation in the country.
This crucial update is in response to an urgent request by the Minority Caucus, who have expressed deep-seated concerns regarding the government’s perceived silence on the recent upsurge of COVID-19 cases at the University of Ghana.
The Minority’s apprehensions stem from the fear that the government’s inaction could potentially unleash a devastating health crisis, precipitating widespread panic and anxiety throughout the country.
Frank Annoh-Dompreh, the Minority Chief Whip, sounded a clarion call, underscoring the gravity of the situation and the imperative for swift, decisive action.
In a recent development, the University of Ghana’s Health Services Directorate issued a cautionary notice to the university community, highlighting the resurgence of COVID-19 cases in the immediate vicinity of the institution.
In response to this emerging threat, the Directorate has promptly reactivated its COVID-19 Response Protocols, including enhanced screening measures at health facilities, and is vigilantly monitoring the situation to provide regular updates.
Undoubtedly, as the government prepares to provide a detailed exposition on its COVID-19 mitigation strategy, Ghanaians are being urged to remain watchful and adhere to prescribed preventive measures to curtail the risk of infection and community transmission.
