Please receive “CV-19 Free” greetings from COHHETI. It is hard to believe how everything has changed, in such a short period. The entire world is battling with COVID-19.
We are fully aware that the impacts of COVID-19 will disproportionately affect people in our communities who have limited resources, access and options and we would like to commend the Government and all relevant agencies for their commitment to stand by and with the people to fight this deadly disease. We thank all health workers for their bravery and commitment towards defeating this common enemy and to all of us for adhering to the precautionary measures outlined by the Ministry of Health.
Ever since His Excellence President Nana Akufo-Addo, ordered the indefinite closure of all Schools to curb the spread of the new coronavirus, few of the country's Health Training Institutions began exploring options in online learning. Since the outbreak began in Ghana, life has virtually come to a standstill. Health Training Institutions remain closed across the country.
I would like to thank everyone for the incredible commitment to ensuring that our community stays safe and is able to manage this disruption in as healthy a way as possible.
The College has on Monday, 16th March 2020 suspended all lectures and has directed all students to go home till further notice. This complies with a directive issued by the Ministry of Health to all Principals of Public Health Training Institutions in the country.
This directive by the Ministry which was signed by the Minister for Health, Hon. Kwaku Agyeman-Manu forms part of measures taken by the Government against the spread of Coronavirus.
