Head of Psychology at the University of Ghana, Professor Joseph Osafo has urged Ghanaians to dispel the conspiracy theories surrounding the COVID-19 vaccines.
There are several stories about the vaccines with some people claiming it has dire health repercussions on those who take the vaccines.
Some also claim it's the mark of the beast, 666, stated in the Bible and others believe the vaccines are aimed to kill about 3 billion Africans among many more unproven theories.
These theories have pumped fears in Ghanaians making a lot of them skeptical about the vaccines.
Making his submissions on Peace FM's ''Kokrokoo'', Prof. Joseph Osafo asked Ghanaians to ignore all those theories and allegations because they are unfounded.
He stated that there is no way the vaccines will be made to extinguish Africans.
''Africans are equally scientifically minded. So people shouldn't think those who come up with the vaccines are not Christians. They also know. There are scientists who are Christians. There are scientists who are morally sound; they know and will speak up if it's not good. We should deceive ourselves that only Whites know everything; it's not true today or tomorrow. There are Africans in there who also know the composition of this vaccine'', he accentuated.
He also called on the government to immediately begin public education on the vaccines to expel all the theories for the smooth administration of the vaccines.
