Ghana has recorded a total of 752 COVID-19 related deaths as 12 patients are in critical and 25 in severe condition, according to Ghana Health Service Report from March 2020 to 1st April 2021.
The report indicated that Active cases stand at 1,474 and confirmed cases from 2020 to 2021 1st April is 90,900 with 88,674 recoveries.
Also, a total of 587,892 Ghanaians have been vaccinated with AstraZeneca from 8th March to 3rd April 2021.
Ghana became the first country to receive vaccines through the UN-backed COVAX scheme, which aims to get COVID-19 vaccines to the world’s most vulnerable people, in a global effort to contain the coronavirus pandemic.
As part of efforts by the government to secure the lives of Ghanaians against the Coronavirus pandemic, it has secured three million four hundred thousand doses of the Sputnik V Covid-19 Vaccine.
The supply of these doses of vaccine is part of an arrangement between the government of Ghana and the Private Office of His Highness Sheikh Ahmed Dalmook Al Maktoum, a member of the Royal Family of the United Arab Emirates.
The agreement was signed on March 9, 2021, to help the people of Ghana bring to a halt the devastations of the ongoing pandemic.
The Sputnik V Covid-19 Vaccine has been approved in over 50 countries and is the world’s first registered Human Adenovirus Vector-based vaccine.
The Private Office has already honored its commitment by delivering the initial consignment of the Sputnik V Covid-19 Vaccines to Accra early last March and will continue to deliver the remaining doses to the Country.
In light of the worldwide supply shortages of Covid-19 Vaccines, the Private Office is dedicated to supplying underserved regions such as the Republic of Ghana as well as the rest of the continent of Africa, using its best-endeavors to tip the balance and ensure more equitable distribution of the Covid-19 Vaccine to distressed and overlooked regions.
