“We have contingency measures on the ground” he said.
He said tests are being run in the hotel and there are ambulances on standby to take people to the hospital. The forum, called “The Kenya International Scientific Lung Health Conference”, is organised by the Ministry of Health.
It began on Tuesday and is scheduled to end on Friday.
