64 patients have recovered from the disease. 44 from the Home-Based Isolation and Care while 20 are from our various health facilities. The total recoveries now stand at 83,821.

Fortunately, there are no deaths reported therefore our cumulative fatality remains at 1,753.

477 patients are currently admitted in various health facilities countrywide, while 1,368 are on Home Based Isolation and Care. 27 patients are in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), 14 of whom are on ventilatory support and 13 on supplemental oxygen.

The Ministry of Health intends to build the capacity of more than 23,000 healthcare workers including 8,000 health volunteers in areas of vaccine administration, logistics management, data capture, reporting and monitoring.

The vaccination program is divided into 3 phases. Phase 1 &#8211; Kenya has prioritized the vaccination of 1.25 million people between February and June 2021 when it is expected that global vaccine stocks will be limited.

Phase 2 &#8211; During this phase (July 2021 to June 2022) and as more vaccines become available the plan is to vaccinate 9.7 million more Kenyans, targeting persons above 50 years of age and those above 18 years of age with underlying health conditions.

Phase 3 &#8211; This phase could run concurrently with phase 2 depending on availability of adequate vaccines. We hope to target the vaccination of 4.9 million people who will include all other vulnerable populations like those on congregate settings.

PAC Capital Limited (“PAC Capital”) (www.PACCapitalLtd.com), a leading transaction advisory firm and the investment banking arm of PanAfrican Capital Holdings is pleased to announce its sponsorship of the 2021 Investing African Mining Indaba Conference –the world’s largest mining investment conference dedicated to the capitalization and development of mining in Africa.

“There is an increasing focus from more African countries towards maximizing the huge untapped resources in the mining sector and Nigeria is not an exception. African Mining Indaba is a unique Conference to explore necessary collaborations and partnership towards maximizing these potentials.” Babatunde Oyekunle, PAC Capital Deputy Managing Director.
“Investing in African Mining Indaba (Mining Indaba), part of Hyve Group Plc, is delighted to announce PAC Capital Ltd have joined Mining Indaba Virtual (2-3 February 2021) as a Gold Sponsor. We are delighted to confirm PAC Capital Limited among other sponsors, including Anglo American, Sibanye-Stillwater, Rio Tinto, Vedanta and Exxaro Resources to name a few,” the organizers confirmed.
The new development serves as the PAC Capital’s first step towards exploring emerging opportunities with Africa’s Mining Industry. Looking ahead, PAC Capital aims to help investors unlock value in the African mining industry while leveraging on its existing strategic alliances and strong network across Africa.
Humphrey Oriakhi, PAC Capital Managing Director, commented: “The restrictions imposed by the current global pandemic have made physical gatherings limited and mining activities have not been spared either. However, the pandemic has also demonstrated that gold remains valuable as a viable store of value even in a technology driven world. This has further driven home the point, for Africa, to focus on value addition to their solid mineral resources. This requires scarce financial resources and PAC Capital is positioned to provide solutions.”
The President of South Africa, His Excellency, Cyril Ramaphosa will deliver the presidential keynote address at the upcoming Mining Indaba Virtual with over 6000 delegates expected to be in attendance. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the conference will be virtual this year.
