Nine out of the 13 reported cases came from St John’s Grammar Senior High School with one case each from the other areas in the area.
The victims were between the ages of two months and 15 years.
The Diseases Control Officer of the Ghana Health Service at the Achimota Hospital, Michael Alexander Garr, told Asempa News that the all the 13 have been treated and discharged.
