A two year-old has tested positive for coronavirus in Kenya.

Health CAS Dr Mercy Mwangangi on Saturday afternoon confirmed to more new cases of COVID-19, bringing the total number of the cases in the country to 191.

One of the new cases is from Mombasa and another one is from Nairobi, one of which is aged two years.

Dr Mwangangi noted that none of the cases has a recent history of travel.

“Out of 491 tested samples, 2 have tested positive for coronavirus bringing confirmed cases in the country to 191. None of them has a recent history of travel. One of the patients is 2 years old & the other 32 years’ old,” Dr Mwangangi said.

Both cases were picked by the surveillance team. However, two more people have recovered bringing the total number of recoveries to 24.

Kenya has so far recorded 7 deaths as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The disease causes respiratory illness (like the flu) with symptoms such as a cough, fever, and in more severe cases, difficulty breathing. You can protect yourself by washing your hands frequently, avoiding touching your face, and avoiding close contact (1 meter or 3 feet) with people who are unwell.
