  2. Experts urge mental health focus in Ghana's flood response plans

    Public health experts say Ghana's flood response should prioritize prevention, mental health support, and healthcare continuity for vulnerable groups, rather than remaining largely reactive.

  1. Health experts warn floods worsen chronic illness through disrupted healthcare

    Health experts say people with hypertension, diabetes and other long-term conditions are particularly vulnerable during Ghana's floods, as disaster response focuses on rescue and infrastructure while patients lose resources, become displaced, and lose access to routine treatment. Flooding creates barriers to healthcare in both urban and remote communities, with financial hardship and blocked roads preventing people from reaching health facilities.

A public health researcher noted that floodwaters contaminate household water sources and allow sewage, chemicals, and germs to mix, leading to waterborne diseases like cholera, typhoid, and skin infections appearing in communities weeks or months later.
