Mintah Akandoh said this in Wa during a working visit to the region to ascertain the Meningitis situation.

He was in the company of the Acting Director General of the Ghana Health Service, Professor Dr. Samuel Kaba Akoriyea, and some staff of his Ministry and the Ghana Health Service.

The region had so far recorded 94 suspected cases of Meningitis from eight districts and municipalities, 20 confirmed cases, and 14 deaths, with the Nadowl-Kaleo District and Nandom Municipality being the epicenters of the disease.

Mr. Akandoh assured the continuous commitment of the government to fighting the menace and that a rapid response team had been deployed to the region to support the health systems, including staff training on the disease’s management.

He observed that financial constraints contributed to delayed reporting to the facility with Meningitis symptoms – stiffness of the neck, coughing, and sneezing, among others.
