Whereas the Ministry of Health says only 54 healthcare workers have been infected, sources puts the number at 80. He continued: “The challenge, is that the government is claiming that they are testing healthcare workers, where is the test being done? The government, however, denied claims that they were not testing healthcare workers adding that they test after every two weeks. In Ngara, three health workers tested positive from a single case,” Kenya Union of Clinical Officer's chairman Peterson Wachira said. Many healthcare workers are concerned that if one doctor, nurse, or cleaner becomes infected, they will transmit the virus to everyone seeking healthcare.
