In the old days, there didn’t seem to be much comfort. The minimum distance required to prevent the Covid-19 virus from jumping from person to person is 1.5 metres. At roughly Sh1,000 per person, that is a Sh50 billion solution at a minimum, solving only the immediate problem. Those institutions that we would turn to, the churches, bars, clubs, to comfort us when we are distressed have been hammered by Covid-19. So, we have to create a new society, not premised on the assumption that good quality air and oxygen is an option.
