These individuals are monitored through the system of health care workers that we have, particularly the community health volunteers who have been trained." Director of Public Health, Francis Kuria who was present at the briefing on Monday confirmed that as of July 20, the country had not recorded any death from the home care protocol. However, Kuria cautioned on the rise in the number of community deaths where people die before being confirmed positive for coronavirus. A total of 418 more people tested positive in the last 24 hours bringing the country's virus cases to 13,771.
