The Oti region debuts on the charts with 13 new cases, according to figures supplied by the Service on its Covid-19 website.
Greater Accra remains Ghana’s epicenter with 1,089 cases; Ashanti has 69, Eastern, 56; Northern, 13 and Volta, 10.
The rest of the regions with confirmed cases are Central, 9; Upper West, 8; Upper East, 8; North East, 2; Western, 1 and Western North, 1.
Out of the 1,279 patients, however, 134 have recovered and 10 have died.
The GHS says it is continuing with the supervision of the completion of a backlog of laboratory samples which have been picked for testing for the disease, a reason for the increase in cases.
