Health Cabinet Secretary Mutahi Kagwe made the announcement Tuesday during the daily coronavirus briefing.
Mr Kagwe said eateries, among other guidelines, must check the temperatures of customers coming to the eateries and restrict access to those with fever symptoms.
“All restaurant workers must be tested, once tested, they will not need to test again within 14 days, unless the restaurant does not follow protocols or a person shows symptoms of the disease,” said Mr Kagwe.
Mr Kagwe was speaking Tuesday when he also announced 40 recoveries and the death of another Covid-19 patient, bringing total discharged persons and fatalities to 1,326 and 105, respectively.
Out of the total confirmed cases Tuesday, 86 were from Nairobi and 27 from Mombasa.
