Coronavirus: Is Ghana testing enough people?

Ghana is one of the countries most affected by the spread of the coronavirus in Africa, with 29,000 recorded cases and at least 153 deaths.

It has recently suffered a setback following the shortage of testing products and medical supplies. Health authorities say the country is now able to resume its full testing capacity, after receiving stocks.

The coordinator of Ghana's Covid-19 testing programme, Professor William Kwabena Ampofo, gave us his assessment of the current situation.
