Guinea worm in the Eastern Region? This is a big shame. What happened to the effort at eradicating the disease? Ghana is certainly drawing back the global eradication effort. I don't believe the report, anyway.
Where is the Government MP inchard in that area and what is he doing?

pls the name of the town is SUKRONG BETHLEHEM
I hope the Authorities are reading this. Ghana have been declared as Guinea Worm free country. The reporter didn't tell us whether he has seen the infected persons himself.
AND DID THE REPORTED CONTACT THE DISTRCT HEALTH AUTHORITIES FOR CONFIRMATION
So where is Ghana heading under this block headed so called president? To the stone age? Ghana had been classified as guinea worm free and these NDC has brought it back? Who are these ifiots called NDC at all at all

This reporter is not reliable,he never told as the reaction of the health team in the area.all he has to say is how the community is suffering,no doubt an NPP journalist.
Guinea worm in Gh? It is not possible. The reporter must check his facts. This has international ramifications. This report can undo the hard work some of us have done in the last 20 years. Please check again and report.
BUT I THOUGHT I HEARD GHANA HAS BEEN DECLARED GUINEA-WORM FREE??

For the past four years, it's been one bad thing after the other, ebei!

For this is our problem but for our resources it's for all.
I don't believe the story because guinea worm confirmation is done in US.The sample needs to be forwarded to USA and it doesn't take one day to get the feed back
Guinea worm in Ghana? It cannot be true. It was eliminated from Ghana several years ago
Why are you guys surprised about this revelation?
I do not blame the reporter. Ignorance at its best let us see the pictures of hanging worms
