New evidence has come to light suggesting that the negative HIV/Aids test results some people received were incorrect.
This surprising revelation stems from a court case filed before the High Court, which brought to light the Ministry of Health's approval process for HIV testing kits.
According to the court proceedings, due to the ministry's endorsement of certain kits as the most effective, there is a chance that three out of every 100 Kenyans who underwent testing were erroneously informed that they are HIV-negative. In reality, they may be living with the virus.
