We now have 20 times the number of cases Uganda has.
Senegal which had 3 times the number of cases Kenya had in May, now has half the number
Cameroon which had 3 times the number of cases Kenya had also now has less than Kenya
Somebody ask the health CS why Kenya is increasing exponentially and others arent.
Countries are hiding data. TZ is no longer testing. Not sure what other nations are doing.
Well one reason and most probable is the so called "Kenyan Winter". Temperatures are generally lower than average and it is believed the virus thrives in cold temperatures. Europe is bracing for a spike come winter.
This virus knows no temperature. Rain or shine if you're not social distancing washing hands or sanitizing you are exposed.
The African story is hidden.
This issue is puzzling. Kenya has actually taken stringent measures but numbers are rising.Other African countries have done zilch.
In the last two months,I have lost two neighbours in Kenya but none in the place where I live which was the epicenter few months ago.
Surely, Tz can hide number of infections but you can never hide dead bodies.
During the Ebola outbreak in West Africa, some governments tried to hide but then bodies started dropping.
Meanwhile, it took me only three hours to get a test result,in Kenya it is taking a week.
Economically, Kenya has taken a hit also.
EUR was at 114 now it is at 125!
