    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. First and foremost, I want to thank Hon. Kiai for being bold to share the information that he has shared with this House, which is very important. We had a conversation here last week. I said that I wish one of our Members can just come out and tell us that he or she had contracted the COVID-19 disease. Initially, when COVID-19 disease came into this Republic of Kenya, many people thought that it was a joke. Actually, they said that the Government has come up with a way to get money. You heard about our colleagues who were sick, but they had not disclosed. Last week, we said that if any of us gets COVID-19 disease, he or she should alert us or come out in public and say that they had it. If I had an interaction with Hon. Kiai, I would have gone for testing and protected many people. During the weekend, we are all over. We go to our constituencies and interact with our families. Allow me to appreciate Hon. Kiai. I know that there are other Members who are here today who would wish to come out and say that they had contracted the COVID-19 disease, so that we can tell Kenyans that having it is not a curse. It can happen to anyone of us or our families. So, it is important to talk about it."
