Businessman Evacuated From Serena Hotel Over Fears That He Had Coronavirus Now Put In Isolation
Detectives tracked down a prominent businessman suspected to have coronavirus.
Health CS Mutahi Kagwe said the man who arrived from Lisbon, Portugal on Sunday was found at Serena Hotel where he was staying and taken to Mbagathi Hospital isolation unit for testing.
Since his arrival, he is said to have been to at least three high-end hotels in Nairobi County.
Serena Hotel however sought to distance themselves from the incidence by claiming that the man from Lisbon, who was picked at its lobby and sent to Mbagathi Hospital, was not a resident guest at the hotel.
CS Mutahi Kagwe said 8 suspected cases tested in the last 24 hours are all negative and the persons were being processed for discharge. The numbers still remain at 7.
CS Kagwe also announced the government’s plan of randomly screening of members of the public at targeted areas to start Saturday. He said that over 600,000 travellers have been screened at all points of entry countrywide amid coronavirus outbreak.
