Modelling the latest trend after the entry of new variants A return to the tighter containment measures that restrict community transmission should be viewed more as a minimum pragmatic requirement than an extreme punitive intervention. Key Highlights The global case fatality rate has stabilized at
What are the implications for calibrating containment measures in Kenya? A year later, confirmed cases have multiplied a hundred times, making COVID-19 live up to its character once described in this series as a disruptive, distractive, destructive and distancing disease. Key Highlights Africa has
Early signs of Kenya’s third wave getting disrupted by the Indian variant Key Highlights The emerging trend of new cases since the Indian variant was confirmed in Kenya, 15 cases reported as of May 12, has been shifting the COVID curve upwards. Kenya has consequently moved from the 8th to the 7th
Key Highlights At 164,386 total cases on May 12, 2021, the curve of Kenya’s third COVID-19 wave has since February 26 stayed close to the simulated ebbing path, mathematically within 1%. The ebbing path has simulated a mathematical peak of 166,775 cumulative cases on May 26, 2021 — now only two
Critical insights from mathematical modelling Key Highlights Like a beckoning vista of mountain ranges, every move closer to winning this war reveals the scale masking the disguised distance setting apart the distant milestones. As we all desire an end to the pandemic so as to enjoy free social
From data to decisions — explaining the decisive metrics for Kenya and implications for Africa Global Review As of March 25, 2021, the global tally of COVID-19 cases was more than 125.7 million. The confirmed COVID-19 cases were 126,170 in Kenya and more than 4.14 million in Africa (about the

Reflections on why Kenya needs stricter COVID-19 containment measures If the tried and tested yearlong COVID-19 modelling experience in this study series for data-driven policy advice is anything to go by, then it follows that Kenya needs stricter enforcement of, and compliance with, COVID-19
Is Kenya staring at the third wave? Projections from tried and tested modelling experience For reasons that this research has attributed largely to delayed response and low sampling and testing efficacies, the surge in COVID-19 cases in Kenya this modelling series simulated to happen after the
Reflections on key insights and implications for disaster governance in Kenya and Africa Finally, Hope on the Horizon On a day when Kenya received the first batch of 1.025 million doses of COVID-19 AstraZeneca-Oxford vaccine under the global COVAX initiative, just after Ghana, this IBD multiscale
