Ghana has recalled its health staff currently on approved study leave in the country — as the nation’s Covid-19 cases jump to triple digits.
The Ghana Health Service (GHS) in a letter addressed to all Regional and Divisional Directors said this decision has become necessary, given the “increased workloads in the various facilities.”
According to the GHS, those who have been recalled will be at post in order “to support in the management of affected persons.”
Ghana is next to Burkina Faso which has so far recorded 136 cases with three deaths, according to the country’s health surveillance system.
It comes after four new cases were confirmed within the general population by the Ghana Health Service on the morning of Friday, March 27, 2020.
So far one person has since recovered while another is in critical condition.
