A mother-of-four who recently gave birth to a baby girl at the Kumasi South Hospital in the Ashanti Region, has recovered fully and discharged with her new child who was not infected by the virus.

The baby has tested negative twice, even though it is being breastfed by the mother, sources close to the mother and child told Class News’ Gemma Appiah.
