The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) is calling on the government of Akufo-Addo to declare a nationwide lock-down with immediate effect.
“The lock-down though not a comfortable decision for leadership and citizens alike is a proven option backed by science and along with the other measures will ultimately be in our best interest,” a statement copied to Adomonline.com said.
