On June 29, 2020, a Ministry of Education conference at Kabarak University ended abruptly after two food handlers tested positive for COVID-19.
Over 80 education officials and other stakeholders who attended the conference were immediately quarantined at the Kabarak Guest House, awaiting COVID-19 test results.
According to a statement from Kabarak University, the two cases were identified through regular mass-testing of staff across all university facilities.
"The county response team took the necessary steps to isolate the cases," said Mr. Alex Kiprotich, late President Moi's press secretary.
