COVID-19, The Ghana Medical Association on Wednesday 12 January has describe the contents of petition against vaccines rollout as misleading, unfortunate band not based on available local and international scientific data.

Eleven doctors (11) has show concern after drafting a petition to President Nana Akufo-Addo, to emerge a directives for the nationwide vaccine rollout against the coronavirus pandemic to halt.

The doctors said, the risk associated with these vaccines, per the data studied so far outweigh the potential benefits.

On Monday, 10th January, 2020, the Concerned Ghanaian Doctors in their petition to the President cited how the UK and Israel are still battling with the virus despite a high vaccination rate of their respective population.

“These countries have very high vaccination rates, currently deploying booster programmes, yet they are struggling to get the virus under control especially with these new variant,” the doctors observed in the jointly-signed petition.

“Assuming as a country we are to vaccinate more than 50% of our population, are we going to continue with perpetual booster every 3 to 6 months in an attempt to maintain vaccine- induced immunity for these disease?

” where then is the endpoint when these vaccines do not stop infection or the spread of Covid-19?. is this financially feasible for us as a nation?.”

For them, the vaccine becoming a mandate is only a ploy by some pharmaceutical companies to rake in profit.

“If there is safe, effective, affordable, freely available early treatment for Covid-19, vaccines are no longer a priority.

“It doesn’t take a genius to recognize the financial benefits pharmaceutical companies to demonising potential early, effective treatment.

“If these medication do work, that’s wonderful in the human race’s fight against Covid-19. However, they are practicably placebos if they don’t work. Why the suppression and demonising of these early treatment then, if the concern is health.

“Considering all these, would it be prudent to pause and ask ourselves whether these novel vaccines are necessary in the first place”, they lament.

They see that, Ghana and African must lead the way in the fight of Covid-19.

“All the relevant metrics show that Ghana and Africa at large have done better than most of the world with respect to the pandemic even before the advent of these vaccines.

“It is possible the rest of the world are rather to learn from us”
