COCOBOD closes down Accra offices after workers test positive for COVID-19
The Ghana Cocoa Board (COCOBOD) will on Wednesday, July 8, 2020, to Friday, July 10, 2020 close down its head office for fumigation exercise.
This is after some of its workers tested positive for COVID-19 during a mass testing exercise.
According to a press release on Monday, July 6, 2020, the closure “has become necessary due to the mass testing the organization is currently undertaking which has resulted in some staff members testing positive for COVID-19.”
“All necessary arrangements have been made for the affected staff to receive the necessary medical attention and contact tracing is currently ongoing to enforce quarantine and isolation measures,” the statement added.
The COCOBOD has thus urged all individuals and companies with urgent business to contact its online portal.
COCOBOD is the latest firm to suspend work because of COVID-19 infections.
