Ghana passes 8,000 cases; Greater Accra passes 5,000

1,106 new cases have been confirmed in Ghana since our last update bringing the case count to 8,070. That is an increase compared to the previous week's increase of 896 (+210). Greater Accra, Ashanti, Central and Western regions make up 96% of the new cases (1061). Almost two-thirds of the new cases were in Greater Accra (708).

Bono East recorded its first cases less than a week ago and already has more cases than Bono (1), Savannah (1) and North East (2). Bono East recording its first cases leaves Ahafo as the lone region without any cases.

With the easing of some restrictions commencing, it will be important to keep an eye on the numbers in the coming weeks.
