However, the COVID-19, being a novel infection, currently has no medication or vaccine for its management, leading to a severe impact on economies and lives. Mr Agyemang-Manu, speaking at the Ministry of Information’s mid-week press briefing on COVID-19, reiterated the need for the strict adherence to the World Health Organisation and Ghana Health Service protocols. Ghana, however, has presently been listed by the WHO among countries doing well with the management of COVID-19 cases, and although there has been fewer deaths the cases kept increasing daily. As at May 14, Ghana’s total COVID-19 case count stood at 5,530, with 674 recoveries and 24 deaths.
