COVID-19 has tricked us, We are reading Chinese to understand -Noguchi Snr. Medical staff

A Medical Research Fellow at the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research, Dr. Joseph Kofi Bonnie, has disclosed health experts in Ghana are now studying Chinese literature to help understand the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) which has been declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organisation (WHO).

“It’s a new virus and we know very little about them and we are now reading a lot of literature from China mainly because it is a credible source; they have published peer review documents backed with experience”, he said.

“We know it’s a respiratory infection and so the basic things are known but then every now and then we get new information on how this new virus is behaving”, he added in an interview with TV3 monitored by Ghanashowbiz.com.
