92 per cent of Kenyans do not know anyone who has tested positive of coronavirus. In a report released by Trends and Insights for Africa (TIFA) on Thursday, it reveals that, half of the respondents feel that the worst is yet to come.

Since the first case of Covid was reported in Kenya, stigmatization has rampantly spread across the country towards people who have recovered from the disease and those released from the quarantine centers.
