This was made known by Dr. Oheneba Owusu-Danso, the Chief Executive Officer of KATH Hospital, who presented the report to the Minister of Health in Accra last Friday.
A five-member committee was tasked to investigate the allegation after a Ghanaian man said he bought two blood bags at KATH for his mom who was receiving treatment at a private facility in the Ashanti Region.
According to Adolf Addo Kwabla, the hospital tested the blood bags and said it was HIV and Syphilis positive.
The committee, chaired by a representative from the National Public Health Reference Laboratory, investigated the veracity or otherwise of Kwabla's allegation and concluded the allegation was false.
