The UN Ghana COVID-19 Bulletin
Ghana reported its first two cases of COVID-19 on 12th March 2020, leading to the activation of national response mechanisms.
The UN Country Team (UNCT) in Ghana is collectively supporting the Government of Ghana (GoG) COVID-19 response, prioritizing support in addressing the immediate public health emergency, while at the same time starting to address the wide-ranging socio-economic impact of the pandemic. The UNCT has rapidly dedicated/re-programmed its available resources to support health and non-health sector response efforts as outlined in the Bulletins.
