  • GHS withdraws AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine

    GHS withdraws AstraZeneca COVID-19 vaccine

    The AstraZeneca Covid-19 vaccine was recently withdrawn, and the Ghana Health Service (GHS) has acknowledged that this was primarily due to commercial concerns.

    Dr. Patrick Kuma-Aboagye, Director-General of the Ghana Health Service, clarified the situation while speaking to the media on the sidelines of the COVID-19 Vaccination and Child Health Promotion Week/African Vaccination Week Campaign in several locations within the Ga East Municipality in Accra.

    According to Dr. Kuma-Aboagye, commercial considerations overrode medical concerns in the decision to withdraw.

    “They are withdrawing for commercial reasons in the sense that there are superior vaccines in the market.”

    “And so if you are in a market and you will not be able to compete why produce something when others will go for some other brand,” he said.

    The decision was made due to the abundance of updated vaccines that became available after the pandemic, according to the company’s explanation for the withdrawal.

    After AstraZeneca’s vaccine manufacturers announced a global recall, the pharmaceutical behemoth admitted to the existence of an uncommon side effect known as thrombosis with thrombocytopenia syndrome (TTS).

    The development of blood clots, which can block veins or arteries and cause symptoms like unilateral leg pain and swelling, chest discomfort, or numbness on one side of the body, is what defines TTS. Thrombosis-related complications such as heart attacks or strokes can be lethal.

    The Ghana Health Service (GHS) has recorded 31 new COVID-19 cases in the country over the previous week. These cases are not severe, according to Dr. Kwame Amponsah-Achiano, the Ghana Health Service’s Programmes Manager for the Expanded Programme on Immunisation.

  • Shatta Wale can easily fill O2 Arena – Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo

    Shatta Wale can easily fill O2 Arena – Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo

    Arnold Asamoah-Baidoo, a pundit for entertainment, has ruled out any possibility that Dancehall artist Shatta Wale could sell out the O2 Arena for a performance.

    Shatta Wale could easily pack the O2, an arena with 20,000 seats, according to Arnold. He went on to say that the Dancehall performer can only do that by working with the right UK promoters.

    Though Shatta Wale has a substantial fan base in the UK and other countries, Arnold claims that his ability to sell out the O2 Arena goes beyond his popularity and fan base.

    “Wale has been in the business for over 20 years, he is also popular in UK, Dubai and other places but you see it goes beyond the praises and popularity we see. He has the catalog and sword.

    “What he has to do is now is to ensure he does not use one promoter. There is one promoter in UK who can make that possible and that’s is Live Nation, he can walk up to Live Nation and discuss his pedigree with them and for his managers to prove to Live Nation that this is what he can do,” he said on Onua FM on May 4.

    He emphasised that Wale could easily sell out the O2 Arena if he worked with other promoters in the UK, such as Akwaaba and Allonia.

    Arnold continued, saying that in order for this to happen, Shatta Wale’s management needed to be able to convince the promoters of his value and abilities and be open to cooperating with them.

    His remarks follow rapper Medikal’s sold-out performance at the O2 Indigo on Friday, May 3.

    With performances by other artists like Shatta Wale, Sarkodie, Jay Bhad, Sister Derby, and Malcom Nuna, the performer put on an electrifying show and sold out the arena.
