Kenyan entrepreneur Catherine Wanjoya () of Genesis Care has taken a challenge by the Royal Academy for Engineering in the UK to help in the fight against Covid-19. The Academy's increasing level of influence – in policy, research and education – was recognised when it was granted a royal title and became The Royal Academy of Engineering in 1992. It reached out to its fellows from Africa to have them work on innovations that would boost the fight against coronavirus. The domestic incinerator can be used at home or quarantine centres, where the bulk is not too heavy. Wanjoya received Sh665,000 from the UK through the RAE's Leadership in Innovation, an amount she says is appreciated but more needs to be done.
