Health Advisor to President Nana Akufo-Addo, Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare has called for a collective effort by all Ghanaians to help fight the spread of Covid-19.

Speaking in an interview on Peace FM’s flagship programme 'Kokrokoo', Dr. Nsiah-Asare was optimistic should every person in the nation play his or her role effectively during this pandemic, Covid-19 will soon be defeated.

He elucidated that the State authorities are taking collaborative steps and it behooves all Ghanaians to be responsible citizens and comply with directives of the President.

The virus, he stated, is no respecter of persons and so doesn’t care about the rich or poor nor politician; therefore no one should play propaganda with the issue.

He believed the World Bank pledge of 100 million dollars for Ghana as well as the Covid-19 Fund set up by President Akufo-Addo will boost the fight against the virus.

According to him, the government has also made available lots of Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs) for health workers and further purchasing more test kits, and other equipment to resolve the challenge nationwide.

Dr. Nsiah Asare stressed that Covid-19 is the nation’s war and needs every individual to gird for it.

“The Coronavirus is a war that we’re fighting. We will fight until we defeat the enemy’’.
