Decisive action in Ghana against the Marburg virus

Ghana's health authorities say that without immediate and decisive action the Marburg virus could easily get out of control, this after confirming two cases in the country (in deceased subjects) of this very contagious and Ebola-like virus in laboratories in Senegal. Contact cases identified in Ghana that did not subsequently show symptoms were isolated; this is the second Marburg outbreak in West Africa after the one in Guinea last year. To report changing the subject but remaining on health issues that in Italy are over one hundred and seventy thousand victims of the SARS-CoV-2 virus since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, then lately over one hundred and twenty thousand infections have been monitored in one day and one hundred and seventy-six victims due mainly to the high contagiousness of the Omicron BA.5 variant.
