The Executive Director of the GNPC Foundation, Dr. Dominic Eduah, lauded the role of the hospitals and health professionals across the country at the forefront of the fight against pandemic.
“We’re all in this together and every effort counts; from governmental level to the last citizen and we all must heed to the standard protocols of good hygiene and social distancing as much as possible to curb the spread of the virus,” he said.
Rev Osei Boateng, who is the Administrator of the Takoradi Hospital, said “though the Western Region has not recorded any cases, this gesture remains a timely one as a number of measures are being put in place to hopefully forestall any occurrences.”
