Dr Joseph Donkor, Specialist in charge of the Tema Manhean Clinic, who made the call, said that was a sure way to block the virus from spreading, saying “that was what China did and were able to curtail the spread of virus, because as you wear it, it means we don’t have anyone spreading it”. Dr Donkor gave the advice when Tema Youth for Christ donated sanitary items to the clinic and some assorted items and cash to 20 pregnant adolescents in the Tema Manhean community. Naomi, a pregnant adolescent, expressed joy at the donation as according to her, it would go a long way to alleviate their plight during the lockdown. She urged other adolescent girls to either abstain from sexual activities or use contraceptives and condoms.
