Brace yourself for a sharp spike in daily new Covid-19 infections, the Health ministry has said, as it plans to test more than 3,000 samples per day soon.
However, should Kenyans observe the stipulated measures — wearing masks in public, practising social distancing and washing hands — the ministry says infections could dip.
Issuing Covid-19 data on Wednesday, Health Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe said Kenya has enough testing kits that could last a month.
Health acting Director-General Patrick Amoth said the ministry had projected the infections that have entered the community phase.
The government is setting up two more, in Migori and Nyeri, to handle samples from the Tanzania border and the larger Mt Kenya region.
