The family of a Mombasa man who died mysteriously on Wednesday evening in Magongo will on Sunday know whether it was a case of the coronavirus. Police were called in but were afraid to handle the body saying public health officers should handle it first because of the threat of coronavirus. There was confusion on protocol as both police and public health officers passed the responsibility baton to each other, causing panic. On Friday, police called in public health officers after residents started getting agitated by the slow response of both the public health officers. The health officers arrived shortly after 12pm on Friday in white hazmat overalls.
