The government has however dispatched a total of 7,000 doses of malaria, 3,500 doses for complicated cases and 22,000 test kits to the affected areas.

According to the Principal Secretary for Health Julius Korir, this has boosted the response mechanism, saying that they have also moved to the affected communities to attend to those who are sick in their houses.

“We have sent our technical team to go for outreach mission so as to ensure that the current situation is contained to avoid more dead,” noted Korir.

He said that they have also mounted mobile camps where patients are being treated, tested and given medicine.
