Kenya has recorded the first case of the deadly coronavirus. Health minister Mutahi Kagwe said the patient is a Kenyan citizen who returned to the country from US via UK on March 5, 2020. The woman is at the Kenyatta National Hospital Infectious Disease Unit. “It was a matter of when not if Kenya would have coronavirus cases,” said Mutahi Kagwe. This is not a time to assign blame but one to join hands to ensure this pandemic does not tear through our country.
