The CS issued a joint statement with UK British High Commissioner Jane Marriott citing recent public concern regarding the approval of the Covid-19 vaccines in Kenya.
“There have been significant public concerns about the issue of vaccine certification. We want to make it clear that both the UK and Kenya recognize vaccines administered in both countries.”
