The Regional Minister, Hon. Dr. Archibald Letsa, led a delegation of hoteliers in the region to UHAS to show their support in kind.

By offering diagnostic services and management of the coronavirus disease in the Volta and Oti Regions through its recently designated COVID-19 Testing Centre, University of Health and Allied Sciences is fulfilling one of its mandates, which is to offer service and care to surrounding communities. On Wednesday 13 May, several local businesses descended on the Main Campus in Sokode-Lokoe to register their support for the University, with donations of several thousands of cedis’ worth of large equipment, Personal Protective Equipment, cleaning supplies and accessories.

GHANA HOTELS ASSOCIATION, VR

The Ghana Hotels Association, Volta Region, under the auspices of the Ghana Tourism Authority, donated a 450-Litre refrigerator, two large veronica buckets, as well as several cartons each of Eppendorf tubes, surgical masks, surgical gowns, surgical gloves, hand gloves, hand sanitizers, liquid soap, and paper towels — all valued at GHC9,000.00 — to the University’s COVID-19 Laboratory during a short ceremony on the Main Campus.

Mr. Marck Hotor, Regional Chairperson of the association, said the contribution was to help facilitate regular hand washing of the laboratory scientists and to enhance their operations in the fight against the pandemic.

Professor John Gyapong, Vice Chancellor, expressed the University’s appreciation, and was particularly grateful that the association did not merely send random supplies, but obtained a needs list from the lab in advance and “supplied what we needed.”

He said that over the past two weeks, the UHAS COVID-19 Lab has been “delivering results of all samples submitted to the Laboratory within 24 hours,” which has not only had a positive impact on subsequent care of COVID-19 patients, but has also reduced logistical costs and pressure on the Regional Health Directorate drastically.

Honourable Archibald Letsa, Volta Regional Minister, expressed “Government’s sincere gratitude to the University of Health and Allied Sciences for the support in the fight against the pandemic,” and made a passionate appeal to all individuals and organisations both at home and abroad to assist the efforts being made by UHAS in the fight against coronavirus disease. Dr. Letsa is also a member of the Ghana Hotels Association.
