The epicentre for the coronavirus pandemic has shifted to North Rift, Lake Basin region and Upper Eastern, as a more lethal fourth wave is predicted this and next month.

A researcher at the Covid-19 Centre told The Standard that concentration of cases in those regions is attributed to laxity in testing, low uptake of vaccine and movement of locals.
