we predicted GoK would get more forceful, as their half-assed vaccine drive stalled - and that such pressure will be counterproductive
what they seem utterly incapable of is sharing timely vaccination location information, and easing access - by weekend popups for example? https://t.co/ARTfTfqQ4q— COVID Kenya (@covid_kenya) November 21, 2021
Let people be vaccinated by hook or crook, we can't afford to close the economy any longer. Even in Bavaria Germany they are resorting to the same measures.

We spoke to A, a long term American expat in Kenya. She says she has mixed feelings about the mandate because she understands that everyone in Kenya will suffer as long as some people in Kenya don't get vaccinated. So, therefore, it's important to have really strong incentives to encourage vaccine uptake. But she wonders about how the government will execute the logistics, especially if there are not enough vaccines in the country for all citizens.We spoke to S.K, an 81 year old woman who is hesitant about getting her second dose of the Astrazeneca Vaccine. "I fell ill after my first dose and I've never fully recovered. My arthritis has only gotten worse since then. I am convinced my predicament was caused by the vaccine". 21 year old *M, a student at Nairobi Technical College says she needs more time to think about getting the vaccine. "I am not anti-vax. I just need more time to mull over it. I think these vaccines were rushed. Some of my friends claim they haven't gotten their period since getting the jab and that's worrying".*F, 27, a lifestyle editor at a leading lifestyle website said she is pro-vaccine but against mandates. "This vaccine is important but the government forcing people to get it is wrong. It should be voluntary". The government will start a 10-day mass vaccination campaign that kicks off on 26th November 2021. For more info, visit www.health.go.ke.What do you think of the vaccine mandates?
