It unpacks several themes, some of them captured in the poem. Collectively, the themes contribute to the central theme of the report; the racialisation of the pandemic in Kenya. These themes include the situation before recording the first infection, the origins of the disease; perceived Black immunity and resistance; government response to the outbreak; anti-Chinese sentiments; and debates on the cure and vaccine of the disease.Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United Stateshttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/COVID 19Technical Report
