There is heightened surveillance in Kisumu County where health officials have launched rapid tests following the detection of Indian Covid-9 variant.
County Health executive Boaz Nyunya clarified that the number of patients with the Indian variant were five and not eight as earlier reported and that the "drop is as a result of gene sequencing taking longer.” 
Nyunya said 58 other people were detected with Covid-19 at Kibos Sugar Company where the five with Indian variant were stationed after travelling from India for a project at the factory.
