Former President John Dramani Mahama has received his vaccination against the Coronavirus disease. He took his vaccine today, Tuesday, March 2, 2021, at the Police Hospital with his wife, former First Lady Mrs. Lordina Mahama.
According to the Former President, he agreed to take the vaccine publicly, so everyone should have the assurance that the vaccines are safe. He added that Ghanaians should be less hesitant about taking and avail themselves of the vaccines.
“I believe that all Ghanaians should avail themselves of the vaccines, and indeed, in Africa, we should be less hesitant about taking vaccines because all of us took vaccines when we were growing up, and it is due to these vaccines that today our children do not get all kinds of diseases like polio and smallpox among others. So vaccines help preserve our health, and so Ghanaians should disregard all these rumors.
I agreed to take the vaccine publicly so everyone would be assured that the vaccines are safe.
