According to Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare who is the Presidential Advisor on Health, President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo will receive the first dose of the first consignment of COVID-19 vaccines which arrived in Ghana on Wednesday, February 24, 2021.
Whiles addressing the media, Dr. Anthony Nsiah-Asare further added the reason why Nana Addo has taken it upon himself to take the first dose of the vaccine “is to assure Ghanaians that the vaccines are safe and any other reactions like headache, dizziness, or pains are all usual with every vaccination”.
With Ghana recording, more than 80,000 cases and over 580 deaths on account of the virus, the Presidential Advisor on Health noted that it would be in the interest of the country, for Ghanaians to avail themselves to be vaccinated when that opportunity came.
“We encourage everyone to avail him or herself of the opportunity to be vaccinated. It is safe, and we want other Ghanaians abroad to also put out their videos to encourage others in Ghana”.
