👉 The Ghana Fluid, also known as the "Ghanaian Flu," is a term that refers to a viral respiratory illness that has been circulating in Ghana, particularly during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. This disease is caused by a novel coronavirus variant that shares similarities with SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, but has distinct genetic characteristics. Symptoms typically include fever, cough, fatigue, and respiratory distress, often mimicking those of the common cold or influenza. The Ghana Flu has posed significant public health challenges due to its rapid spread and the potential for severe outcomes in vulnerable populations. Efforts to control it include widespread testing, contact tracing, and public health advisories aimed at minimizing transmission.
