Health workers are screening all travellers originating from countries, which have been confirmed to have the flu. A nationwide influenza alert has been issued to all health workers with details about symptoms and actions to be taken in the event of any suspected Swine Flu. The laboratory testing capacity at National Influenza Centre, Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI) has been strengthened by provision of more testing kits. Adequate and preventive drugs have been stocked to treat any confirmed cases. Mr. Speaker, Sir, my Ministry and the stakeholders who include the World Health Organization (WHO) and neighbouring Ministers of Health continue to be on high alert. We are consulting continuously."
