Information available to this portal reveals that an 11-day-old baby is among nine children who have tested positive to COVID-19 at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) in Kumasi.

Professor Sampson Antwi, Head of Child Health Directorate at KATH disclosed this to this portal.

Professor Antwi noted that all the nine cases were recorded in the last eleven days.

He noted that 14 children tested positive to COVID-19 at KATH in 2020 with the youngest child being 3-year-old.

Professor Antwi noted that PPEs are not a challenge but they lack enough space to accommodate more children in case more cases are recorded.
