One more person has died as Ghana’s Coronavirus cases have surged to 834, the Ghana Health Service (GHS) has reported.
According to the GHS, the new figures are part of the completion of a backlog of laboratory samples picked up for testing as part of the COVID-19 testing exercise.
Hence, the new figures recorded do not represent new cases.
“…Some 57,000 samples already successfully tested as of April 15th, 2020. In the first batch of this backlog, an additional 198 have been found to be positive. This will bring Ghana’s total case count to 834 at the moment. The general public is however advised that this does not represent new infections that are occurring. It represents results from tests of a backlog of samples,” part of the report by the health service read.
