Kenya recorded her first death as a result of the coronavirus on last Thursday, March 26, with the passing of a 66-year-old man. His death, not only brings home the dangers posed by the virus but will also force Kenyans to set aside some aspects of social life, such as burial as the numbers of those affected continue to rise.
