Ghana may not extend lockdown – Hon. Kwaku Agyemang Manu

The Minister of Health who doubles as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Dormaa Central in the Bono Region, Hon. Kwaku Agyemang Manu has revealed that Ghana may not likely extend the two-week partial lockdown after it expires.

To the Health Minister, the directive has so far been successful and the lockdown has made contact tracing in the past days very effective, hence his belief that there may not be the need for extension after it expires.

He had this to say:

“…we pray that data that we get after the two weeks may probably give us an indication of the situation Ghana is in now. If for three-four days after doing several tests we are getting zero, zero, zero then there will not be any need for us to continue with the lockdown. That is the effort we are trying to put in and we will test a lot number of people through our contact tracing mechanism. If we are able to do that successfully I believe we’ll get data that we’ll stand on to revise the government’s decision for the lockdown of the system we have.”
