A total of 130,575 people have so far been vaccinated against Covid-19. The Health ministry in a statement on Tuesday said a total of 806,000 doses of the total 1.12 million received into the country early this month had been distributed across the country. This comes even as the Pharmaceutical Society of Kenya cautioned against unauthorized marketing of Covid-19 vaccines, saying people have been marketing vaccines to the public through their social media accounts. “In the same breadth we would like to register our awareness of cases of global trade in falsified Covid-19 vaccines that target popularized brands,” PSK president Louis Machogu said. From the number, 46 were on ventilatory support while 97 were on supplemental oxygen, Health CS Mutahi Kagwe confirmed in a statement.
