Good Morning. I’m really happy to be here today to inaugurate the Joint Operational Vector-borne Disease Entomology Laboratory at 37 Military Hospital. This lab is the first of its kind in Ghana and wouldn’t have been possible without the strong military-to-military cooperation between our two nations.
Rise in COVID-19 cases due to complete disregard of protocols – Noguchi Director LISTEN
JAN 11, 2021
The Director of the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research, Professor Abraham K. Anang has attributed the recent spike in COVID-19 cases in Ghana to a disregard of safety protocols.
Health authorities recently indicated that a cumulative number of 55,220 cases of the coronavirus had been recorded in the country.
The Ghana Health Service said a total of 3,580 health workers out of that number had so far contracted the virus.
Speaking on the sidelines of the launch of the Third Country Training Course on enhancing laboratory skills for infectious diseases in West African countries, Prof. Anang said Ghana will continue to record more cases until the safety protocols are strictly adhered to.
