NEWS IN: Disregard This News ”Achimota SHS School On Two-Weeks lockdown Due To Delta Variant of Covid-19”. Its Fake
From GES there was a news published on 3news which reads.
The Ghana Health Service (GHS) and the Ghana Education Service (GES) have agreed to lock down Achimota School for the next two weeks.
As per a directive to the School’s authorities, no one will be allowed in or out of the school.
This follows the recording of the fast-spreader Delta variant of Covid-19 among some infected students.
About 135 students tested positive for the new variant though 89 later recovered.
Authorities were alerted by the outbreak of the viral disease in the school after three students were taken ill between Monday, June 14 and Wednesday, June 16 for influenza-like symptoms. Butj this later turned out to be Covid-19.
According to the GHS, results available for 550 samples indicated that total positive was 135 with 293 pending as of Saturday, July 3 and the rest negative.
That same day samples of more day students were taken.
The latest directive means day students would have to remain home for the next two weeks as well.
“We are not going to allow any visitation in the school for the next two weeks. The day students are going to be kept at home for the next two weeks, while those who are positive are going to be kept in isolation,” Director of Public Health at GHS Dr Franklin Asiedu Bekoe said in an interview with Accra-based Joy FM.
Doctors Advise
The virus is back, this time with more energy, tactics and camouflage. We don’t cough, No fever, it’s joint pain, weakness, Loss of appetite and Covid pneumonia!
Of course, the death rate is higher, it takes less time to get to the extreme. Sometimes no symptoms .
The strain is not domiciled in our nasopharyngeal region. It directly affects the lungs, which means window periods are shortened.
There are more and more false pharyngeal nasal tests COVID19) … which means that the virus spreads directly to the lungs causing acute respiratory distress due to viral pneumonia! This explains why it has become acute and more fatal.
Be careful and avoid crowded places, wear a face mask and wash your hands often.
From GES the news up there is fake and must be disregarded. The school has not been closed down yet.
We hope whatever GES is saying or doing wont cause any harm Parents are not to panic and the situation is under control. Be rest assured and take good care of yourself out there.
