Director-General of the Ghana Health Service, Dr. Patrick Kuma-Aboagye has clarified his stance on the lifting of Covid-19 restrictions by President Akufo-Addo.
He said even though the risk of the virus infection is low, there are still some 38 covid-19 patients which is a clear indication that the virus exists.
Dr. Kuma Aboagye is therefore appealing to the public to continue observing the protocols, especially the mask-wearing, adding that it is not mandatory anymore, but people should consider wearing the masks to protect themselves against the virus.
The Director-General also entreated the public to "get fully vaccinated” to protect themselves.
He was speaking on the GTV Breakfast Show with Kafui Dey.
