Dr Bernard Okoe Boye, Deputy Minister of Health has asked health workers to continue to be diligent in their duty since their challenges are paramount to the government.

Dr Okoe-Boye disclosed these when he toured the Adidome District hospital in the company of Dr Archibald Letsa, Volta Regional Minister and the District Chief Executive for Central Tongu District to assess their COVID-19 preparedness, response and also inspected some health projects in the district.

He said government would play its role to the fullest and can only ask for diligence and hard work from them to contain the virus.
