Two medical staff members of the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital have tested positive for the novelle coronavirus.
A doctor and a nurse who work at the Medicine Department and Child Health Department respectively have been infected by the virus.
The Chief Executive Officer of the facility, Daniel Asare described the incident as unfortunate but added it was predictable.
Reacting to the sad incident, Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress, Sammy Gyamfi blamed government for the unfortunate cases of frontline workers testing positive for the deadly coronavirus.
To him, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo's address to the immediate needs of frontline health workers is nothing but a mere lip service.
“Government’s failure to provide our frontline health workers who are the first line of contact with COVID-19 victims with PPEs, has put them at great risk. Sad!”, Sammy Gyamfi tweeted.

President Akufo-Addo has proven time and again to be an expert in delivering flowery speeches laced with lofty promises, but he is always found wanting, when it comes to actual implementation. https://t.co/JIRRLAITHj

I celebrate works and not words. Promises are not achievements. https://t.co/4Zio0QAwro

Government’s response to the pandemic has so far been one of Public Relations and Information Management. There are a lot of things government is not telling us. We must brace ourselves for a possible extended lockdown and extreme hard times in the coming weeks.
