Health Cabinet Secretary Mutai Kagwe has confirmed the country’s first cases of the Omicron variant.

Speaking in Mombasa on Wednesday morning, 15th December CS Kagwe said that the new cases had been detected in three passengers who have since been quarantined.

Kagwe further confirmed that no local has tested positive for the fast-spreading virus.

We’ve detected Omicron among travelers and it’s just a matter of time before it becomes the dominant variant across the globe, I have no doubt about it. However, no local case has been reported. It’s spreading very fast but the saving grace is, it is not severe,” said Kagwe.
