The Ghana Association of Medical Laboratory Scientists (GAMLS) has appealed to the government and benevolent individuals and organisations, to help boost the medical laboratories in the Upper West Region.
This according to the group would ensure early diagnosing, management, and treatment of the outbreak of Cerebrospinal Meningitis (CSM) in the area.
Mr Michael Amoah Gyansah, the Upper West Regional Chairman of GAMLS, made the call at the maiden dinner and awards night for members of the group in Wa, the regional capital.
He said currently, it was only the Upper West Regional Hospital that had the capacity to confirm suspected meningitis cases.
