Ghana Health Service organizes workshop on TB at Tepa

Tepa (Ash), March 29, GNA - The Ghana Health Service (GHS) in the Ahafo-Ano North District recorded 37 tuberculosis (TB) cases, representing 14.1 per cent of 261 expected cases in 2006.


Nana Adu Bobie, the District Disease Control Officer, said this at a two-day workshop on TB organized by the District Health Directorate for its staff drawn from health institutions at Tepa on Wednesday.


He attributed the shortfall to inadequate public education and the failure of the public to report cases at health institutions.


Mrs Elizabeth Danso Adentwi, the District Director of Health Service, appealed to the participants to step up education on the disease in communities since many people did not know their status and failed to report at hospitals for treatment.
