Port Health officials at the Paga Border, in the Kassena-Nankana West District of the Upper East Region, say an effective surveillance system is being put in place to help detect suspected cases of the coronavirus also known as COVID-19.

The officer-in-charge of Port Health, Flora Apam, in an interview with GBC’s Radio Ghana said due to the many entry points at the Paga border, it has become necessary to take innovative measures to ensure that all the entry points are under strict surveillance system.
