The recent increase in cases has raised concerns among the public. Nevertheless, health authorities have taken steps to reassure citizens that the situation is under control and that there is no need for alarm.
In light of the outbreak, the GHS encourages the public to implement preventive measures, which include practicing good personal hygiene, avoiding close contact with individuals showing symptoms, particularly those with unexplained rashes, and seeking immediate medical attention if symptoms arise.
