A cholera outbreak in seven regions in Ghana has claimed about 90 lives and affected over 10,000 people.
The Health Minister was hopeful that the renewed efforts between his ministry and that of the Local Government and Rural Development will be the panacea to the sanitation problem.
“The Ministries of Local Government and Health…are putting something together to fight the cholera,” he said.
Medical supplies to health centers have been increased to cater for the increasing number of patients reporting daily for medical attentions.
The government has asked the World Health Organization (WHO) to supply Ghana with oral vaccines to combat the disease.
