The Director of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC), Dr. John Nkengasong, has commended the continent’s leaders for actions it took when the disease first broke out.
He has described actions taken by rican governments to contain the spread of the disease as very courageous.
The renowned virologist says that these actions must be commended as they resulted in relatively low deaths.
Dr. Nkengasong made these remarks in an interview with Radio Univers’ Dr. Abubakari Sidick Ahmed ahead of his Aggrey-Fraser-Guggisberg Memorial Lecture at the University of Ghana.
Africa at a Crossroad?”
This year’s AFGM lecture will be held on Friday, March 18 at the Great Hall.
