Currently, Kiambu has 1,000 Covid beds, and these will go up by next week, when the county commissions the Ruiru Level 4 Hospital. Nyoro wants to transform Kiambu health institutions to international standards, an objective that has been hastened by the invasion of Covid. He added that the collaboration had lifted a load off his government, allowing it to put resources into smaller health institutions in Gatundu. Patients from health institutions in Kiambu with health complications will, courtesy of the collaboration, be referred to KU Referral. KU Referral and Kiambu county health institutions will also collaborate on research.
