A few days ago, Gossips24.com published story of a Ghanaian man named Fredrick Drah who shared his story after recovering fully from the novel coronavirus.
According to Mr. Drah, he contracted the illness from his friend who came to Ghana not long ago from one of the infected countries abroad.
He was transferred to the Ga East Hospital where he got treated till he recovered.
However, Mr Drah reveals that returning home has been even painful than when he suffered from the killer disease. According to him, he and his family have been seriously stigmatised by neighbours and other residents in his community.
He reveals that shop attendants have even refused to sell foodstuff to his wife while barbers fail to attend to him for fear of contracting the virus.
“Whenever my wife goes out to buy something from the stores around us, the stores refuse to sell to them. In some circumstances, even though they have a particular item, they will not sell it with the excuse they don’t have it,” Mr Drah said.
“Coronavirus is real, it is real so please stay at home and obey the lockdown, wash your hands and use your sanitizers. I have survived but maybe you will not so please obey the directives and keep yourself safe.”
