The editor of this paper Kelson, is also the spokesperson for Paa Kwasi Nduom and I would want to know from him how the Korle-Bu CEO lied to Kwasi Nduom? Was the CEO who conducted the test and informed Kwasi Nduom that all was well with him or how? I'm a bit skeptic here since the headline of the story has no bearing of the entire story. Come again Kelson.

What knowledge do people who go into
journalism have in chemistry , or biochemistry.It is true that reagents used for extraction and testing of DNA whose results must be precise should not be compromised.But did Paa Kwesi Ndoum go for DNA testing.What most lame men including journalist do not know about reagents is that the Expiration date on most reagents is for commercial purpose and the producers do so to ensure continuity of their production. How on earth can sodium chloride common salt or the one named in this article pottassium oxide be rendered useless after afew months after the expiration date. The potency of any reagent is the determinant fact about its use. Another example could be a papsmear kit with an expiration date.This kit consists of a brush, a plastic or wooden spatula and a glass slide. How can these items expire when they are just instruments. There is a lot of wastage in the labs and institutions in America and the advance countries and we should not follow them blindly. We don't have the resources they have. The journalists and readers here should know that every test run is run against controls and that failed controls will render the test invalid. No one gives invalid results. Besides controls and standards there are also quality control methods and quality assuarance procedures in place. The potency of the reagents matters more than the date on the bottle

And Woyome alone was given Ghc52 million to go and chop free by this same govt which has imposed itself on Ghanaians by teaming up with the EC to rig the elections ?
Common reagents which will cater for the health of all Ghanaians and which have expired are still being santioned by the NDC gangster-general Eddie Annan of the Labadi Beach Resort scandal for usage ?
God save Ghana from these criminals.

The part of a Doctor's Physical exam the involves use of chemical agents are the BLOOD & URINE ANALYSIS.Urine analysis determines infesctions in the Kidney and the urinary track.Blood
analysis measures the levels of iron, sugar,oxygen,sodium,calcium,chloestroland other vitamins to indicate deficiencies for correction;Prostate cancer cells activity show in Blood test. Some EXPIRED MEDICATIONS ARE STILL GOOD for use;the expiration date is a cautionary guide. When lab chemical agents are properly stored, they have longer shelf life up to 2years.In may poor African countries and for lack of budgetary allocations to cover lab and pharmacy inventory, well stored good but expired drugs saves LIVES and MONEY!!This is the explanation for drugs with expiration date. It also applies to packaged processed food items in many Super Markets. The mass production of food and drugs in the WEST made the EXPIRATION DATE mandatory to prevent abuses for profit.Infact,restaurants SELL OLD FOOD as fresh; the same with grocery stores that sell rotten fresh meat, chicken and fish.The Nduom Korle Bu B&U exam will not show major shift in past medical history. Nduom is a very healthy man; he travels globally and checks his health status frequently. Above all, his wife has medic past to provide primary care.The vision test, Bone Density, and ecocardiogram do not need expired chemical agents to pass or fail tests.
The story is worth public attention and not the silly sensationalism that makes hospitals and doctors appear to be incompetent and irresponsible.The other regional hospitals too must be checked and so that the practice does not become a public health hazzard. Bad drugs make people sick and die and our hospitals should not be DEATH TRAPS AND HOSTELS; they are for life extension and maintenance. Africa has been a dumping ground for expired drugs and other products;Oburoni wawu
and used cars plus electronics flood our markets to stifle domestic manufactures and entrepreneurial drive.It is all about the MONEY and some rogue element put PROFIT before the PEOPLE!! Damn greedy bastards!!

The Ghana case must not be Standard Operating Practice as it will have costs too. The manufacturers
also expect users of their products to do so responsibly; Ghanaian Doctors and hospitals are resposible for handling chemical and drug stocks under their watch. The expiration dates are established for legal reasons and not for marketing defective products. I agree with comments by Guy.

Do Ghanaian reporters think that,they are giving the government of the day bad report.Of course not.In America it is very hard to hear reporters destroying their own country with bad report.In Ghana reporters have become the politician telling liars, destroying their own country.The same reporter will cry that, government is not creating job.If you have put this lairs own internet do you expect which investor to invest in your country?.Course nobody will invest.When I was in Ghana,I was thinking that America is like heaven but when I came here then I found out that, is not like heaven the rob people everyday,they kill people everyday,they pay bribe to politicians everyday,but they used the word donation,this wise people will never allow their anger over come their country future so they never put their sensitive problem on internet.Even the CNN in America is different from the one they show to the world because they are not fools like AFRICANS and hence Ghana.We African or Ghanaian's have to know how we talk and try to keep some secret. Everyday we allow our anger to over come us.Let me ask you some question, within some few years China is becoming superpower,where did they got their money from?.Money is a paper any country can print some to develop their infrastructures.Some time ago Americas are blaming China for manipulating their money,why because China's people are not fools like Ghanaian's or Africans who do not understand they strategy to developed a country.A white man was able to tell black man that,somebody came to this world called Jesus and he was white,his mother was white.Moses was white, angels are white and the devil was black why.Did we ask why of course not because we keep on allow our anger overcome the negative strategy our enemy has put us in and keep on fighting and insulting our self everyday.

The fact that expired reagents were found in the Korle Bu Cold Room does not mean that they are using expired drugs. Expired drugs must be inspected and recorded by auditors before they are disposed off after following other procedures. Furthermore, the examinations that were done on Dr. Paa Kwesi Nduom did not require reagents to invalidate his results. Please lets get serious. However, let me congratulate you for bring this up so the the institution could determine the cause of expiry whether it was due to over stocking of under utilization of such reagents.

So as I said before with good attitude plays a meaningful role in business and facilitate in achieving better life for the public .. Similarlry ungodly attitude if not checked at work place threatens Ghana's public strutures. That explains why private sector institutes run by sound management is more profitable than public sector. Korle -BU today conjures command on the surface and stinks like rotten fish..... GOOD ATTITUDE BURIED AT KORLE -BU HOSPITAL.. So we see that Ghana's Health Institutions is corrupt

If some folks in authority are not sued to the bone to have them taste the real hardships their actions often lead many Ghanaians to fall into, we would continue to encounter such gross ineptitude and fraud in our Institutions.
I wonder how many lives might have been needlessly lost because of these false tests. If the account is true, and some folks did really die for having been given tests with these drugs that might have been largely inefficacious, why can't the victims' survivors sue the Hospital and individuals directly in charge of Procurement and application of the drugs?
I really wish some of these Corrupt and insensitive megalomaniacal heads of our Institutions could be stripped down into abject poverty with Court Damages; it would teach them some lessons if they have to live the rest of their lives "penniless and certificateless".
