[CONCERNED DOCTORS OF MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE-GH @labdoctorsghana]

The 2003 Dakar Convention forms the legal bedrock of #MLSD. 📜⚖️
​By signing Protocol A/P3/1/03, ECOWAS mandated:
✅ Equal degree recognition across 15 states
✅ Harmonized health training (WAHO)
✅ Labor market tracking for pandemics
✅ Curbing brain drain

Happy Boxing Day to the Ministry of Health. 📦🇬🇭
While Ghanaians are unboxing gifts and hampers today, 1,000+ Doctors of Medical Lab Science are staring at the one box you have refused to open:
The "Pending" File on your desk. 📂🔒
We don't want hampers. We don't want charity.
Unbox our Potential. Open the file and sign the Financial Clearance.

#ThrowbackThursday to when we took our oath to save lives. ✋🏾🩺

We didn't swear that oath to sit at home. We swore it to serve Ghana. But for 5+ years, the Ministry has kept us on the bench. Looking back at our graduation photos is painful because we see the hope that this Government has slowly destroyed.

Don't let our Oath be in vain.

Every health system has a breaking point.
It usually starts when the most trained professionals stop believing the system believes in them.
Ghana is dangerously close to that point.
We are watching.
We are documenting.
We are not forgetting.

The world screams "TGIF!" We scream "Help Us!" 🗣️💔

For the employed, Friday is a relief. For the 1,000+ Unemployed MLS.Ds, Friday is the start of another 48 hours of anxiety and silence. We don't get weekends off because we never got to start work.

Make this a "Good Friday" for us. Sign the Paper. ✍🏾

It is Saturday. The Labs will be overwhelmed!

The few staff on duty are drowning in samples! Errors will happen, Delays will happen. Meanwhile, 1,000+ fresh, energetic MLS.Ds are sitting at home, wishing they could help.

It is Saturday. The Lab is overwhelmed. 🏥⚠️

Right now, the few staff on duty are drowning in samples. Errors will happen. Delays will happen. Meanwhile, 1,000+ fresh, energetic MLS.Ds are sitting at home, wishing they could help.

The solution to the weekend chaos is sitting on your desk, Hon. Minister. Pick up the pen.

Very sad! Only those who can afford to travel have travelled. The rest are left to waste in the house while patients wait for hours to receive their lab results because the labs are understaffed #PostMLSDsNow @mohgovgh @KMAkandoh @JDMahama @Cassielforson @NJOAgyemang

We did everything right. We studied. We sacrificed. We earned the Doctorate.
In return, the system crushed our spirit.
They looked at a generation of brilliant scientists and said, "We prefer you unemployed." They don’t care about us and the patients who need us.

Health care Stability > Currency Stability. ⚖️ @mofep_ghana: Ghana pumped $10bn into the Cedi. Yet, the cost to stabilize health by posting MLSDs although a fraction is ignored. The empty lab chair is Policy. Prioritize people. @JDMahama #PostMLSD

The Antibiotics aren't working. Do you know why? 💊🦠
Condition: Multi-Drug-Resistant Sepsis (e.g., MRSA or ESBL). A patient is fading fast after surgery. Fever is spiking.
❌ The Non-Specialist: Keeps changing antibiotics blindly. "Try Ciprofloxacin. Now try Ceftriaxone." Result: The bacteria laugh at the drugs. The patient goes into septic shock.
✅ The MLS.D: We don't guess. We culture. We identify the specific genetic resistance mechanism. We tell the doctor: "Stop the Ceftriaxone. This bug only responds to Meropenem." Precision Medicine saves lives. Guesswork kills.
1,000+ Precision Scientists are sitting at home. Honorable Minister, stop the guesswork.

We can’t build strong labs or a responsive health system while highly trained MLSDs sit on the sidelines. They are trained to lead diagnostics, improve surveillance, advance research, and guide policy. If we want real resilience, MLSDs must be on board.

The govt @mohgovgh @JDMahama @KMAkandoh knows that it's vital to get these Docs into the system as it's determined to improve the quality of the output from our hospitals. The question is why are they sidelined as if nothing is intended.
