KENYA AMONG COUNTRIES TO GET CORONAVIRUS EMERGENCY FUNDS FROM UN
The United Nations has put Kenya on its Covid-19 outbreak watch list in what could see Nairobi benefit from the Sh211.8 trillion ($2 trillion) global emergency fund.
Others on the list are Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, Mozambique, Madagascar, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Timor-Leste as well as countries in Central America and the Pacific region.
UN relief chief Mark Lowcock said the list could be expanded to include more poor countries as the deadly virus continues to spread.
