Mwangangi said the government attributed the recoveries to a healthy diet which she said would form the government's latest safety measure against Covid19.
"We would like to emphasize one new measure which we have found to be very important. A healthy died increases the immunity and helps the body fight the disease in the event of an infection. The Ministry of Health has therefore issued new nutrition guidelines with regard to Covid19 with the intention of ensuring Kenyans are taking a healthy and balanced diet," Mwangangi said.
