Coronavirus: Life inside Kenya's quarantine facility

Focus on Africa

Available for over a year

A Kenyan woman who spoke to us anonymously has described conditions inside one of Kenya's quarantine facilities as a torturous experience. She says the facilities available are not habitable but more importantly she has been kept there for a month despite testing negative for coronavirus. Her frustration and anger at not being allowed to go home is quite apparent in this interview with Âé¶¹Éç Focus on Africa's Bola Mosuro.
