Kenya should urgently set up a major hospital for infectious diseases

Though the reality of Covid-19 still seems far removed from many of us, its ravages to our pockets and ways of life is very real. We can not run away from the fact that it is not business as usual.

Somehow we have to figure a way out. We have to learn to manage Covid-19 rather than die from it. Indeed, the cessation of movement, the curfew and the wearing of masks has slowed the spread of coronavirus. There is, however, no way to completely stop the spread of the virus. As such we must strategise afresh.
