By







Ghana has recorded its third coronavirus death at the 37 Military Hospital as the wife of a two-star general falls victim.

According to Joy News sources, her husband who has also contracted Covid-19 is in critical condition.

The source said both of them have not travelled abroad for some time now but it is suspected that they may have contracted the virus when they received a parcel from the United Kingdom from a courier company.

Health authorities are now tracing the person who delivered the parcel as well as other people who have been in contact with the two after they received the parcel.

Ghana now has 68 coronavirus cases, according to an update from the Ghana Health Service (GHS).

This means that 15 more cases have been confirmed since the last cases were announced less than 24 hours ago.

The virus, since it was first detected in the country earlier this month, has so far claimed three lives.
