Video: Sanitation mess; a silent enemy in Ghana’s COVID-19 response

As COVID-19 cases continue to rise globally, medical facilities, factories and households are generating huge amounts of waste from used protective items.

The disposal of such waste has to undergo strict treatment protocols to ensure the virus does not spread in the process.
