Dr Kennedy Koech of the Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) was yesterday among the first Kenyans to get the Covid-19 vaccine injection. Dr Koech was in the first batch of 10 KNH staff selected for the Oxford/AstraZeneca jab from different departments of the facility, including dental, diagnostics, intensive care unit and security. When the Saturday Standard caught up with him an hour after the injection, the maxillofacial surgeon said he did not feel any of the listed side effects. The expected side effects are headache, pain on the injection site, redness and fever. “It is not a painful injection. You hardly feel it, and by the time you do it is already done,” he said. “People should not be afraid.”
