Fighting Corona Virus Is More Than PR Gimmicks, Flowery Speeches And Partisan Posturing – Sam George

The real way to get ahead of the scourge of COVID-19 is to truly escalate testing and get a real picture of the extent of infection.
How do you lock down areas with a combined population of over 5 million Ghanaians and carry out 15,000 tests and expect to get a real picture of the infection? That is 0.3% of the locked down population! Not even up to 1% and we think we have a proper picture of the reality on the ground?

Fighting Corona Virus is more than PR gimmicks, flowery speeches and partisan posturing. I am deeply worried about our under equipped front line health workers who would even after the height of this pandemic be exposed to possible infections.

We are in troubling times
