QUESTION

The Ministry of Health wishes to estimate the prevalence of the Coronavirus in the Kenyan

population quickly and cost-effectively for high level response planning. While there are known

hotspots, senior officials suspect that asymptomatic transmission may have spread the virus far

beyond what is being captured through the targeted testing that is going on. This would pose a

major long-term health and economic crisis for Kenya if the actual infection rate exceeds 0.5

percent of the current population.
