  • Liberian president George Weah on Friday sacked the country's top health official over his handling of coronavirus testing in the impoverished West African state. Mososka Fallah, director general of the Public Health Institute of Liberia (NPHIL), was removed from his post for "breaches in the health and administrative protocols that guide the issuance of Covid-19 test results," Weah's office said in a statement. The decision was made on the recommendation of a committee set up especially to investigate the matter. The exact nature of allegations against Fallah was not revealed, but Weah promised to publish the committee's report at a later date. NPHIL is in charge of handling epidemics such as coronavirus, which has killed 82 people and infected 1,306 in Liberia so far, according to the latest official data. An internal source within the institute, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that Fallah had been sacked for refusing to attend meetings of an anti-coronavirus taskforce because he had not been put in charge of it. He was also suspected of issuing "Covid-19" travel permits without the taskforce's knowledge, the source said. Liberia is one of the world's poorest nations, and was battered by civil wars between 1989 and 2003 that claimed around a quarter of a million lives, and by West Africa's 2014-16 Ebola pandemic, which killed 4,800 people in Liberia alone. zd/mrb/siu/spm/pvh
