President Uhuru Kenyatta is expected to Friday lay down a revised plan to combat the coronavirus in the wake of a warning by health experts of a third Covid-19 wave. The Health Ministry has reported a surge in new virus infections, with ICU beds in Nairobi full by Tuesday evening. On Wednesday 713 new cases were reported from a sample size of 5,230. “I wish to bring to your attention that we are currently dealing with the third wave of the virus which is severe. In this regard, the CoG together with the Ministry of Health will relook at the existing protocols with a view to containing the current wave,” CoG chair Martin Wambora said.
