Following the detection of coronavirus cases in Togo, the Ghana government has put measures in place at the southern border to warrant early detection of the virus.
According to Aflao Sector Commander of the Immigration Service, Chief Superintendent Fred Duadu, measures have been taken at the border to prevent a spread of the virus.
"A thermal scanner has been installed at the border health post to help identify travellers who may be infected with the virus. Every traveller crossing into Ghana from Togo must undergoes a screening process at the border health post," he said.
Aside from the installation of a thermal scanner and provision of a thermometer and protective gears, officials of border agencies have also been duly trained.
