The Ghana Health Service (GHS), on July 4, received adequate supplies of reagents and other medical logistics from China to help ramp-up the country’s Covid-19 testing.
The Director-General of the GHS, Dr Patrick Kuma-Aboagye, giving an update on COVID-19 case count and management situation at the bi-weekly media briefing in Accra, said the medical supplies would be distributed to the COVID-19 testing centres across the country.
“This has come as good news following the recent announcement by the health authorities that there was shortage of reagents and other test kits for COVID-19, hence the inability to conduct more tests,” he said.
Dr Kuma-Aboagye encouraged Ghanaians to continue observing the safety etiquettes such as washing of hands with soap under running water, use of alcohol-based hand sanitizers, wearing nose/face masks and adhering to the social/physical distancing.
