In addition, researchers project that at least 137,000 new cases and 116 deaths will be reported in the country by June this year.
The report also projects that there will be 1.1 million infections, by then.
But, most infections according to the research will remain undetected due to limited Covid-19 tests.
Further, researchers have noted that the worst scenario for the spread of the virus will be an increase by 50 per cent.

Summary
Elvis Nyaruri signed a recording deal with A.I Records Kenya, a subsidiary of Universal Music Group early in December and by the end of the month released his first single under the label, “I Just Can’t Wait to Go Back Home.”

The disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic meant that he lost many opportunities just as his talent was getting widely noticed.
2020 could not have ended on a more promising note for a performer who is touted as Kenya s brightest prospect in country music.
