Fear has engulfed nurses and other workers at the Ogbojo Polyclinic at East Legon after some senior staff who have tested positive for COVID-19 at the facility are reportedly still reporting for duty.
According to Starrfm.com.gh sources, six senior staff who have contracted the virus have not self-isolated or been directed to do so by the hospital.
Multiple sources told Starrfm.com.gh that a medical officer, a Midwife, the Supply officer and a Nursing officer are among those hit by the virus.
A management member at the hospital who spoke to Starrfm.com.gh on condition of anonymity Monday confirmed the cases but said he was unable to offer details.
Meanwhile, President Akufo-Addo has confirmed that Ghana’s Health Minister Kwaku Agyeman-Manu has contracted Coronavirus.
Media reports on Saturday noted the minister had contracted the virus and was being treated at the University of Ghana Medical Centre in Accra.
