Former President Jerry John Rawlings has been chronicling the shocking death of NPP stalwart, Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie, alias Sir John, and the hospitalization of others as a reminder of the deadly risk the society faces in underestimating the new coronavirus disease.
In a Tweet yesterday, Mr., Rawlings said “it does not appear that people can afford the comfort of thinking the Covid-19 virus has gone weak or lessened its grip.
It is there and very much around waiting to infect and claim the lives of people who will underestimate its danger.
According to him, a senior medical doctor at the 37 Military hospital barely survived Covid-19 several weeks ago after the wife passed on after contracting the virus, saying that may have been the first shocking wake-up call that the virus is real and deadly.
Fellow citizens, it does not appear that we can afford the comfort of thinking the Covid-19 virus has gone weak or lessened its grip. It is there and very much around waiting to infect and claim the lives of those of us who will underestimate its danger. pic.twitter.com/pyYBf672ki
