The 45-year-old woman from Homa Bay County, who tested positive for the coronavirus, sneaked into Kenya from Tanzania where she had attended a relative’s funeral.

The woman, who hails from Gwassi in Suba Sub-county, reportedly crossed into Tanzania illegally two weeks ago, to bury her step-father in Shirati.

County Health executive Richard Muga said she stayed in that country for two weeks and that it is believed she contracted the virus there.

She returned to Kenya at about midnight on May 5 and then travelled back to her home in Mukuyu village using a boda boda.

Villagers reported her travels to local authorities, worried about possible transmission of the Covid-19 disease.
