Kenya has confirmed 22 new cases of Covid-19, Health CS Mutahi Kagwe said on Wednesday.
This brings the number of cases to 81.
A total of 300 people were tested within the last 24 hours.
The new patients are as follows - 18 Kenyans, two Pakistanis and 2 Cameroonians.
Kagwe continued to urge Kenyans to take the Covid-19 situation seriously.
"Over the last 24 hours, 810 Italians have passed away. What this tells us is this virus doesn't know boundaries, we are affected in the same way," he said.
There have been three full recoveries - patient number one (Brenda), three (Brian) and patient number eight, who has not come out publicly.
President Uhuru Kenyatta on Wednesday held a virtual meeting with Brenda and Brian from State House, Nairobi.
Uhuru held a live video chat with the two recovered patients who were at Afya House.
The two were accompanied by Health CS Mutahi Kagwe.
Uhuru praised the first coronavirus patient, Brenda, saying she was brave in coming out and taking herself to the hospital once she became aware of the symptoms.
"You are special because upon your arrival and you feeling that you were not well... without being pushed, you took it upon yourself realising that you had the risk to harm others and take yourself to Kenyatta National Hospital," Uhuru said.
