Wearing of face masks no longer mandatory – Akufo-Addo

The wearing of face masks is no more mandatory across the country.

“From tomorrow, Monday, 28 March, the wearing of facemasks is no longer mandatory. I encourage all of you, though, to continue to maintain enhanced hand hygiene practices, and avoid overcrowded gatherings,” President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo announced while addressing the nation on Sunday, 27 March 2022.

According to the President, the decision to “revise the COVID-19 restrictions” was informed by the significant low levels of infections across the country and the number of vaccinated persons so far.

“With countries in the ECOWAS Community, especially in our neighbouring countries, presently, like us, recording very low levels of infections, and having significant numbers of our people vaccinated, and on the advice of the national COVID-19 Taskforce and the health experts, I have taken the decision to revise the COVID-19 Restrictions, enacted under E.I. 64,” President Akufo-Addo noted.

The President also called on persons who have not yet taken the COVID-19 jab to do so.

“To my Fellow Ghanaians who have not received the jab, I urge you to take it. To those listening to the propaganda by the conspiracy theorists and those who are still sceptical about the efficacy of the vaccine, it has been a year since my wife and I got vaccinated; it has not disrupted our physical wellbeing, nor has it caused us to be sick. We are, touch wood, hale and hearty, like the other 13.1 million Ghanaians who have been vaccinated,” President Akufo-Addo said.
