"Test COVID-19 Vaccine On Senior Government Officials First", Popular Politician Says

IgbereTV reports that Martha Wangari Karua, a Kenyan politician, who is a former member of parliament for the Gichugu Constituency and an advocate of the high court of Kenya, Social justice advocate, has publicly spoken against the testing of the Coronavirus vaccines on Kenyans.

She said on Saturday that if the Ministry of Health says Kenya was ready for the testing process, then the top government officials should be first in line.

“Now that @MOH_Kenya says Kenya is open to the testing of British vaccines in Kenya, let them be tested on members of the cabinet and their families and thereafter all elected representatives and senior government officials" the former minister tweeted.

On Friday, Kenyans got the news that scientists from Oxford University in the UK were planning to test their vaccines in Kenya.

According to a report by the BBC, the scientists are considering trialling the vaccines in Kenya if at all they do not get the expected results in the United Kingdom.

Kenyans have since been questioning the decision to test the vaccines in their country seeing that the COVID-19 cases are still low as compared to other countries.

However, the Ministry of Health denied claims of any planned COVID-19 vaccine trial on Kenyans, stating that if there was any plan for COVID-19 vaccine trial, the public would be informed by the Kenyan Health Ministry.
