If it's not a homa and now you are telling us its a stomach problem why are they not taking stool samples for testing? That's far much beter than being pocked in the nose.
I think we are all damned if a covid victim farts in a public place or shared spaces like a matatu or in the office.
She has confirmed she was not in icu .
We understand her ignorance. Your governments scare mongering tactics by labeling corona as the boogeyman of all other disease caused such a scare to her and other church followers. She had to run to the mathabahu to thank her God. Little did she know that with just a silent Lord's prayer all was well for her.

Now this story of Ciru has some contradictions.

1.On the day it was announced she has been taken in,it was reported that ambulances and Covid response team had been seen in Runda voing to pick her....now she says she took herself there.

2.She says she was put on oxygen and tests started......yet it was reported she os critical and has been taken to ICU with the Virus.

3.She has been in hospital for 8 days and has been tested twice and is negative and can go home.......other patients are told 14 days isolation

I dont doubt she was unwell or she had COVID but some things are not adding up

Anyhow we are happy The Glory is here is well.

Whatever the Bishop was on at ICU must have been very strong.
She came out talking more loudly than Atwoli!

@Mpobiz I agree with you to some extent though hiyo energy and ICU are not consistent.

But please do not dissuade me from dwelling on @Makales explanations.I learn alot from him.You need to apologise for calling his well explained thoughts and information(including graphs and charts) ati myths and legends.

Corona testing curbed by lack of test materials

TUESDAY, JUNE 2, 2020 8:00

Testing for coronavirus disease in the country is being held back by a shortage of test materials in government laboratories.

The Business Daily has established that State institutions like the National Influenza Lab and the Kenyatta National Hospital have a backlog of unprocessed tests, in a sign of the impact of the shortages caused by a worldwide race to acquire test kits.

“We have been experiencing a shortage since Friday and Kenyatta National Hospital along with some other government labs cannot conduct the tests at the moment.

The shortage is mostly on the automated kits like the reagents for Roche,” said a top official at the National Influenza Lab who sought anonymity.

He added that the lack of testing kits will hold Kenya back from ramping up diagnostic testing to better understand where the coronavirus is spreading and how to stop outbreaks.

Chemical reagents are substances used for chemical analyses of the samples extracted from nasal swabs.

Was wondering too. Do they take 108,059 deaths a joke and one George more serious? Give me a break, we even support the protests against the racist incident here in Kenya n forgeting that we call some people "these people""those people" and prohibit inter-tribal marriages without protests. hypocricy!!

I would request that you appraise yourself with basic Covid facts FIRST

1) So far very few of the people who have caught it get it again. So in populations like New York that have 20%+ people already infected - expect about 80% of the people who show up for protest to be susceptible.
2) Not all susceptible persons will get the disease even if they are at the protest (read about how the disease spreads). They just increase their chances of getting the disease.
3) Not ALL people who are INFECTED get SICK and HOSPITALIZED and DIE... This has been stated to many times its tiring to repeat. because 80% of those that catch it have MILD and Moderate symptoms. So assuming that ALL of those ones you see on screen actually get the disease... expect 20% of them max to be visiting the ER over the next 2 weeks.
4) the factors that determine whether an infected person becomes severe or critical are many (older people, co-morbidities, lack of vitamin d, underlaying issues etc.)

Do you expect to see a bump in the numbers next few weeks - Yes... will ALL these people "FALL SICK AND GET HOSPITALIZED"? Hell No... unless they are all very unfortunate.

Back again to basics - The reason medical experts are urging social distancing measures be put in place is TO SLOW DOWN THE DISEASE. As I stated earlier the "flatten the curve" gospel was designed to be one that ensured that the 20% that eventually gets sick does not get sick at the same time and flood the hospitals. That's what was experienced in New York and Italy... people staying at home who are infected don't get opportunities to spread it (or reduce the number of people they pass the virus to). Healthy people who stay home do not increase their chances of contracting it by rubbing shoulders with people who are potentially infected. The people who get infected during this protest may themselves not get "sick" enough to be hospitalized but may later infect people at home (older people who never went to the protests)

It seems to have doubled over the last 14 days. but half of these people have recovered.
Maybe they are executing Mpobiz's strategy - no contact tracing.
Anyway - lets wait.

Hospitals are full of Asymptomatic cases...

In other news... Brazil wamefika hapa

Brazil is easing restrictions despite logging record numbers of daily coronavirus fatalities, with President Jair Bolsonaro saying death is "everyone's destiny."

On Wednesday, Brazil recorded the highest number of deaths from the coronavirus in a single day. The 1,349 new fatalities beat the previous record of 1,262 deaths, which was set the day before, according to data from the country's health ministry .
