<p>The director of NMIMR was happy to announce that the advances made by his outfit relating to the sequencing of the COVID-19 has been done in partnership.</p>



<p>“It has been done by the University of Ghana Noguchi Memorial Institute for Medical Research and our sister partner institution called the West African Centre for Cell Biology and Infectious Pathogens (WACCBIP),” Prof Anang revealed.</p>



<p>This milestone, he stressed, was good and made possible through a collaborating with others to work to break barriers.</p>



<p>He explained that it was necessary, indicating that “as we all know, sequencing has its significance.”</p>



<p>To this end, Prof Anang acknowledged Zoomlion for standing tall in the waste management space.</p>



<p>“…and we see Zoomlion very well, very clearly in this country. We all know the role that Zoomlion has been playing as far as personal and environmental hygiene is concerned, and we even know today as we speak in this COVID era that Zoomlion again has assumed strategic positioning and leadership in providing wide scale disinfection, adding that as we speak already at the University of Ghana, Zoomlion has started working and disinfecting the lecture halls and various facilities.”</p>
