KERICHO COUNTYREADY FOR MASS #Covid_19 TESTING. THREAD
I am proud to unveil mass COVID-19 testing at the KEMRI/Walter Reed Laboratory in Kericho today.
We are proud of our collaboration with KEMRI which means that we can now conduct up to 2000 COVID19 tests per day.
The equipment are top notch and the KEMRI lab in Kericho is one-of-its-own kind. We no longer need to send any samples of suspected persons to Kisumu or Nairobi for analysis.
Soon, additional equipment will be activated to increase the daily testing capability to 6000 per day.

FIGHTING COVID-19 IN KERICHO.. A THREAD
I have this afternoon directed the Kericho Water and Sanitation Company (KEWASCO) to suspend with immediate effect any disconnection of water to any home or institution in Kericho County as a result of non-payment of water bills until the
Coronavirus scare has been dealt with.
The company should instead engage with the clients and agree on a payment schedule towards the clearance of the same into the future.
Any disconnections that have already been undertaken will be restored by this directive.
