“If you are vaccinated and you feel slight headache it means the vaccine is working very well.”

Prior to this, the Director-General, Dr Patrick Kumah-Aboagye, speaking at a press conference in Accra stated vaccination was the surest way to deal with the virus. He assured that the authorities are going to scale up surveillance measures at the Kotoka International Airport during the Christmas season to ensure that Covid infections do not increase.

He further noted that the mistakes that were made in December last year which occasioned the escalation of infections in January this year, will not be repeated. And as a result, Dr. Kumah Aboagye indicated that there is going to be a strict enforcement of the protocols at the KIA since the nation is expecting increased number of people to arrive in the country.

The Director General posited that the GHS will ensure that its logistics are prepared and will continue its surveillance to be able to monitor the virus.
