Six students of Accra Girls SHS test positive for coronavirus

The Accra Girls Senior High School has recorded six coronavirus cases.

The patients, all students of the school, were isolated at the school’s sickbay on Monday, June 29, 2020, together with some other students who also showed symptoms of COVID-19.

According to a Citi news report, six out of eleven students who were tested for the virus tested positive.

Health officials from the Ayawaso East Health directorate on Saturday, July 4, moved the students who tested positive to the Ga East Municipal Hospital for treatment.

Calm has been restored to the school after a little agitation from some students over COVID-19 fears.

Final year Senior High School students returned to school on Monday, June 22 to prepare for their final exams after President Akufo-Addo directed all schools in the country to be closed from March 16.

Final year students in tertiary institutions, as well as Junior High Schools, have also returned to school to prepare for their final exams.
