Health officials stress the importance of vigilance and timely reporting to contain the outbreak effectively.

Reaffirming its commitment to managing the situation, the GHS is closely monitoring developments and implementing necessary interventions to slow transmission.

With total infections now at 163, authorities call on all citizens to remain alert and cooperate fully with safety protocols designed to protect public health.
