Health CAS Dr Rashid Aman on Wednesday announced that 104 new COVID-19 cases were recorded in the last 24 hours bringing the country’s total to 35,460.

A total of 2,285 samples 2,285 were tested in the last 24 hours, bringing the cumulative tests to 481,982.   

All were Kenyans except three who were foreigners.

The youngest was a one-year-old infant and the oldest was 75 years old.

Some 74 patients have recovered from the disease, bringing the total number of recoveries to 21,557.

Forty-one of those discharged were from the home-based programme, while 33 were discharged from various health facilities.

The number of fatalities rose to 607 after eight patients succumbed to the virus in the last 24 hours.

Aman also castigated a group of Kenyans who are no longer adhering to COVID-19 containment measures.

He said this has been inspired by the low numbers of COVID-19 recorded for the last few weeks.
