We erroneously suggested through a story published on May 5, 2021, on citinewsroom.com that the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association was waiting on the government for clearance to start producing COVID-19 vaccines.
We understand that the Vaccine Development and Manufacturing Committee set up by Government is currently working to facilitate the development and manufacturing of vaccines in collaboration with the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Ghana.
It has also been clarified that there has been no request from the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association of Ghana for clearance to manufacture vaccines.
We thus retract the erroneous story published on citinewsroom.com and apologise for any embarrassment caused to the government, Ministry of Health and the Pharmaceutical Manufacturers Association.
