By DAVID MUCHUIMore by this AuthorA nurse in Meru was last week forced to improvise personal protective equipment (PPE) from a plastic garbage bag before he attended to a patient suspected of suffering from Covid-19. Images of the May 5 incident, showing the health worker wearing a garbage bag have been circulating online. In one of the photos, the health worker is seen with his colleagues before he handled the patient. If it did happen, I don't understand why the health worker would do that and take photos. Meru Health executive Misheck Mutuma termed the incident as "mere propaganda".
