Ghana’s active coronavirus cases seem to be letting up as two consecutive figures released by the Ghana Health Service (GHS) show a decline.

Latest updates on the virus by the GHS show that Ghana’s active case count as of November 22 is 775, after 41 new cases.

This is a drop in the number of active infections which stood at 832 in the previous update. Before the cases dropped to 832, active infections stood at 940.

A few weeks before these declining figures, the country saw a sudden increase in active case count.
