Don't joke with Coronavirus - Winful Cobbinah to Ghanaians

Black Stars midfielder Winful Cobbinah says Ghanaians should stop joking about the outbreak of coronavirus which has brought everything in the world to a stand still.

The deadly virus has led to several events being suspended until further notice due to its rapid spread.

Most leagues in the world have also been affected and have been postponed until at least April 3.

The virus has taken the lives of several individuals across the world and former Hearts of Oak midfielder has disclosed that coronavirus must be taken seriously by Ghanaians.

"I think as Ghanaians we joke a lot with very serious issues this coronavirus issue is not a joke. I have been watching some videos and reading on social media how people are circulating fake news and joking with it," Cobbinah told Asempa FM.

"It started in Albania here with 8 cases now we're having more than 12 cases and is a very serious virus we shouldn't joke about it in Ghana I think our elders should put measure to it fight it fast before it get to hands."

The 28-year-old, who plays for Albanian club KF Tirana, continued, "If I need anything, you just have to call the club management or the team doctors and they will provide it for, for now am really safe and we're are praying it end early because no one is going out we're all in room eating and sleeping since they break us."
