The Director General of Ghana Health Service, Dr, Elias Sory has instructed the medical administrators of Kete-Krachi government hospital to immediately fix the treated mosquito bednets to the beds at the children’s ward of the hospital.

Dr. Sory did not take kindly to the behaviour of the hospital authorities who have been keeping the bednets unused whilst children on admission suffered from mosquito bites and developed malaria.

The Director General who was on a day’s visit to medical facilities in the Krachi-West district of the Volta region last Tuesday noted that Krachi is one of the mosquito infested areas in the country.

The tour also afforded him the opportunity to acquaint himself with the working conditions of health workers and the real situation of the medical service in the region.
