Full name, pictures of Norwegian who allegedly imported Coronavirus to Ghana

While the government has been tight-lipped about the identities of the two diplomats who imported Coronavirus to Ghana, a trusted source has disclosed to MyNewsGh.com details about one of the diplomats.

Governments all over the world have made public the names, identities, workplaces, and status of all confirmed cases in their countries. Ghana, however, has not made the information public officially.

It was earlier reported yesterday that the two people who contracted the coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic are one senior official of the Norwegian Embassy in Ghana and a Ghanaian working in Turkey who returned into the country.

It is now emerging that Gunnar Andreas Holm, the Norwegian Ambassador to Ghana is the person who has been confirmed.

The Health Minister at an emergency press conference on Thursday night did not disclose the identities of the two patients but stated emphatically that the cases were imported into the country.

Kwaku Agyemang-Manu did not give many details as to how and when the two foreign nationals entered the country and whether or not they went through the necessary checks and screening.

He, however, said, “the two patients are stable and have been kept in isolation.”

The Minister revealed that the Ministry of Health and other relevant state agencies have begun tracing individuals the two patients have gotten in contact with.

The two persons who returned to Ghana from Norway and Turkey tested positive to coronavirus after laboratory results from the Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research.
