The Bank of Ghana has clarified that it’s hospital being availed to Government for the Covid-19 fight will serve all Ghanaians and not VIPs only.
The central bank was reacting to earlier comments by the Health Minister Kwaku Agyemang Manu that the facility will only cater for the treatment of COVID 19 VIP patients and BOG staff.
A statement issued by the Bank said “it has been in discussions with the Ministry of Health to agree on an arrangement to avail parts of the facility, to assist in the treatment of severe and critical cases of COVID-19”.
This arrangement the statement says will be available for the benefit of the general public.
The Bank assured the public of its support of the national effort towards the management of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We Thank God Covid-19 has so far targets the same so called VIPS. They should continue to use our taxes to build hospitals that will only take care of them. Some time back, they didnt care because when they were sick, they flew to UK,US, India or SA for medical treatment. Today, God has lifted His hands and we have all become the same yet they still want to show God that they are more human than God could imagine. So let them keep the BOG hospital to themselves and GOD will decide who gets healed and who gets lost. Was it not the same ordinary Malaria that took some precious innocent souls of the so called rich away when the children of the poor were daily carriers of the parasite but strong and healthy? Oh, they say some Chief got Covid and could make it. is that one too true?
So is it true a Minister of state spew these trash and he is still at post. God help. Government should operationalise all JM hospitals ASAP
Who are more dumb than NDC Ministers and the Mahama
This is what happens when you elect a duuumb ***barred word*** president. Corona virus a pandemic then you invite so called men of god to pray at jubilee house. There are institutions with smart young guys who can be put into research to come out with findings. no education with vans, NCCE is dead, only minister of figures telling citizens bull craap. The president could have invited the moslem leaders for prayers if he believes that will solve the problem
Exactly.
BOG is funded with the taxpayers' money and it is not a private enterprise; they should behave themselves! Already people are very seething with anger for their lapses which resulted in so many banks and microfinance companies failing and people loosing their entire life savings! No special discussion needs to be had with them to make that facility available ;we are a nation in crisis and we must deploy all our national assets to fight this disease.
