A virologist at the Kumasi Centre for Collaborative Research, KCCR Dr Micheal Owusu is asking the government to review its strategy in the Covid-19 fight.

According to him, this is because a lot of asymptomatic cases may be infecting the vulnerable population.

The government on May 31 eased some of the Covid-19 restrictions, and some Ghanaians due to the easing of restrictions are not adhering to safety protocols.

Most people are now seen without face masks and those who also used it are not wearing them correctly.

Reacting to this development, Dr Micheal Owusu said there is a need to review the country’s strategy.

“There has to be a review of strategy, this is the fourth level classified by the Africa CDC of WHO where the asymptomatic case has built a base and now that they have begun to build a base they will begin to… in the vulnerable population. This should tell us that we need to reorganise our system and channel more resources to health facilities to ensure that adequate testing is done and the people get their results in real-time and people at least are being taken care of.”

Ghana’s Covid-19 total case count now stands at 10, 358. Meanwhile, 3, 824 have also recovered from the virus so far. The death toll is at 48.
