The Health ministry will intervene and assist quarantined individuals on a case by case basis after several Kenyans quarantined at Pride Inn Hotel in Lantana said they were denied lunch over nonpayment. Quarantined individuals were to stay at specified facilities for 14 days at their own expense in the war against Covid-19. However, when the government extended the quarantine period by another 14 days, it committed to pay. In a notice on Saturday, the Pride Inn management said it has been providing services for the extended quarantine period without pay. "As it stands, please be advised that you will be required to pay up all your bills before leaving the hotel."
