Coronavirus kills Ghanaian nurse in the US

A Ghanaian female nurse, Freda Ocran of Jacobi Medical Center has been reportedly killed by the novel coronavirus in the United States.

Per reports gathered, the 50-year-old Ghanaian nurse identified as Freda Ocran reportedly gave up the ghost after she was diagnosed with Coronavirus some few days ago.

Kwame Ocran, son of the late nurse said her mother had earlier expressed concerns about the lack of precautionary measures including testing for the coronavirus at the health facility she worked for.

In a conversation with the POST, Kwame Ocran said; “She had concerns, especially with working with patients and other staff and how long it was taking to be tested.”

“Without those tests being administered, there’s no way of knowing if she was working with someone who had it or not, she complained and was concerned about the precautions being taken,” Kwame reiterated.

Jacobi nurses later held a rally outside the hospital Saturday demanding more protective gear. Kwame described her mother as the most charitable person he’s come across.

“Without those tests being administered, there’s no way of knowing if she was working with someone who had it or not. She complained and was concerned about the precautions being taken,” Kwame added.
