Ghana Tightens Border Health Measures to Prevent Ebola Outbreak: Health Ministry
Ghana has reportedly introduced mandatory health screenings and 21-day monitoring for travelers arriving from Ebola-affected African countries.
Key preventive measures include:
Temperature checks, health assessments, and contact tracing at border crossings.
Mandatory disclosure of recent travel history, suspicious symptoms, and possible exposure to infected individuals.
Criminal prosecution for those who evade screening or provide false information.
Ghana has recorded no confirmed Ebola cases so far, the country’s health minister said, adding that the measures would be reviewed as the situation evolves.
