Two CoVID-19 patients at Old Fadama on the run

The contact tracing team for Covid-19 in Accra has confirmed that two persons are on the run after testing positive.

These two individuals are said to be residents of Old Fadama, a suburb of Accra.

The two were tested during a mass exercise three days ago on Monday, April 6, 2020 in the community.

After results were confirmed, the contact tracing team told JoyNews that the two residents who tested positive for coronavirus cannot be located anymore.

“It was really difficult getting them so they called in security to help but since then, these persons have been away from the community. Each time they call, they either ignore or pick up and say they are far away from the area,” head of JoyNews’ Health Desk, Fred Smith said.

One of the positive case is a female head porter, popularly known as ‘Kayayo’ who shared a single room with 15 others including three children.

Ghana’s CoVID-19 cases currently stand at 313 with six deaths as at April 8, 2020.

The Central Region is the latest region to record a case bringing the number of affected regions to seven.
