Ghana Health Service says Ebola campaign still on-going

The Ghana Health Service says it has not suspended the campaign against Ebola, despite reports of a reduction in new cases in some of the affected countries.

Public Relations Officer of the Health Ministry, Tony Goodman told Radio Ghana that the authorities are not leaving anything to chance and are therefore sustaining efforts to prevent the disease from entering the country.

Mr. Goodman also indicated that the Ministry is still putting up Ebola centres across the country which could be converted into permanent centres for infectious diseases.

On the indebtedness of the National Health Insurance Authority to health facilities, Mr. Goodman said, the Ministry is collaborating with Finance to facilitate the speedy release of funds.
