The late Ken Ouko

It has now emerged that the late University of Nairobi lecturer Dr Ken Ouko was treated and discharged at the institution’s clinic on July, 17, 2020. He was asked to continue with his medication at home but his situation deteriorated. It was at this point that he sought another review at Aga Khan Hospital, Nairobi.

Ouko tested positive for coronavirus, was admitted and put on oxygen. After three days there was no improvement and he was taken to ICU. On July 31, his condition worsened and his family was informed that his lungs were extensively damaged. His kidneys had also failed and he was put on dialysis.
