Former President of Ghana John Dramani Mahama has asserted in a recent pronouncement that he would have outdone better on Coronavirus outbreak than sitting President of Ghana – Nana Akufo-Addo.
According to John Dramani Mahama, he would have outperformed and tackled Coronavirus better if he was the sitting president at this time of a global pandemic.
He outlined a comprehensive plan to fight pandemics better and differently if Ghanaians vote for him during the 2020 elections which is slated for December.
John Dramani Mahama noted:
“While our minds are focused on fighting coronavirus, I would like to start a conversation about strategic plans and investments that will address future pandemics. As I have already suggested there is the need for a National Infectious Disease Response Plan that clearly sets out the specific steps to be taken to prevent the entry of such diseases, quickly arrest them at a very early stage even if they do enter our shores and reduce their impact to the barest minimum”.
“I have previously stated that given the opportunity, I will ensure that we establish another medical research center with capacities like the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research (NMIMR) and the Kumasi Center for Collaboration Research in Tropical Medicine (KCCR) in the Northern part of Ghana as part of the Response Plan. Under the plan, we will double the bed capacity of the 37 military hospitals and build an Infectious Diseases Centre there to cater to the Southern sector to help manage infections like Ebola and COVID-19.”
