Kenya has received 880, 320 doses of Moderna Covid-19 vaccine and Kenyans who had not gotten the second jab have been urged to do so. 

Health Chief Administrative Secretary, Rashid Aman, received the second batch of Modern and asked the over 90,000 Kenyans who were due for the second jab to get it and boost the continuing campaign for herd immunity since "the first dose provides one with some protection, full protection only comes about when one is fully vaccinated,” he said.
