The Ashanti Regional Health Directorate Ebola Response Team has
quarantined a suspected Ebola patient at the Kwame Nkrumah University
of Science and Technology (KNUST) Hospital.
The patient, who is not a Ghanaian, is said to have displayed symptoms
of the disease when he was rushed to the Hospital on Tuesday.
When the Ghana News Agency visited the Hospital in Kumasi on
Wednesday, the patient had been quarantined awaiting the results of
the test of his blood samples sent to the Noguchi Memorial Research
Institute.
Dr Yaw Bio, Director in-charge of the Hospital, told the GNA, that the
patient is doing well, and gave the assurance that the Hospital had
taken serious measures to respond swiftly to all suspected Ebola
cases.
He debunked rumours that the Hospital had been closed down as a result
of the suspected Ebola case.
