    Flash Update Kenya Floods Response Update – 29 June 2018 Humanitarian Situation and Needs Kenya Country Office An estimated 64,045 flood-affected people are still in camps in Galole, Tana Delta and Tana North Sub counties in Tana River County. A comprehensive assessment of the population still displaced in Tana River will be completed next week. Across the country, the heavy long rains season from March to May has displaced a total of 291,171 people. Rainfall continues in the Highlands west of the Rift Valley (Kitale, Kericho, Nandi, Eldoret, Kakamega), the Lake Basin (Kisumu, Kisii, Busia), parts of Central Rift Valley (Nakuru, Nyahururu), the border areas of Northwestern Kenya (Lokichoggio, Lokitaung), and the Coastal strip (Mombasa, Mtwapa, Malindi, Msabaha, Kilifi, Lamu). Humanitarian access by road is constrained due to insecurity along the Turkana-West Pokot border and due to poor roads conditions in Isiolo, Samburu, Makueni, Tana River, Kitui, and Garissa. As of 25 June 2018, a total of 5,470 cases of cholera with 78 deaths have been reported (Case Fatality Rate of 1.4 per cent). Currently, the outbreak is active in eight counties (Garissa, Tana River, Turkana, West Pokot, Meru, Mombasa, Kilifi and Isiolo counties) with 75 cases reported in the week ending 25 June. A total of 111 cases of Rift Valley Fever (RVF) have been reported with 14 death in three counties (Wajir 75, Marsabit 35 and Siaya 1). Case Fatality Rate is reported at 8 per cent in Wajir and 20 per cent in Marsabit. Active case finding, sample testing, ban of slaughter, quarantine, and community sensitization activities are ongoing.

  • Kenya Malaria General Malaria Information: Predominantly P
    Kenya Malaria General malaria information: predominantly P. falciparum. Transmission occurs throughout the year, with extremely high transmission in most counties surrounding Lake Victoria. Some areas with low or no transmission may only be accessible by transiting areas where chemoprophylaxis is recommended. Location-specific recommendations: Chemoprophylaxis is recommended for all travelers: elevations below 2,500 m (8,200 ft), including all coastal resorts and safari itineraries; all cities and towns within these areas (including Nairobi). No preventive measures are necessary (no evidence of transmission exists): elevations above 2,500 m. Preventive measures: Travelers should observe insect precautions from dusk to dawn in areas with any level of transmission. Atovaquone-proguanil (Malarone or generic), doxycycline, mefloquine, and tafenoquine are protective in this country. G6PD testing is required prior to tafenoquine use. 34°E 37°E 40°E 43°E NUMBERED COUNTIES 5°N SOUTH Ilemi 1 - Nairobi 25 - Kakamega 2 - Kajiado SUDAN Triangle ETHIOPIA 26 - Vihiga 3 - Makueni 27 - Nandi Lokichogio 4 - Machakos 28 - Baringo " 5 - Embu 29 - Elgeyo/Marakwet Lake Sibiloi N.P. 6 - Tharaka-Nithi Turkana 30 - Uasin Gishu 7 - Meru 31 - Bungoma " 37 8 - Kirinyaga 32 - Trans Nzoia Moyale Lodwar 9 - Murang'a 33 - West Pokot " 36 El 10 - Kiambu 34 - Turkana Wak " 11 - Nyeri 35 - Samburu T u r Marsabit 12 - Laikipia k 36 - Marsabit w N.P. e Marsabit 13 - Nyandarua 37 - Mandera l " 34 14 - Nakuru 38 - Wajir 2°N m ua M 15 - Narok 39 - Isiolo UGANDA S a Wajir l Losai m " 16 - Bomet 40 - Kitui a N.P. l t 33 e 38 17 - Nyamira 41 - Tana River 35 39 18 - Kisii 42 - Garissa 32 29 SOMALIA 19 - Migori 43 - Lamu 28 Samburu N.P.

  • Evaristus M. Irandu University of Nairobi Nairobi, Kenya Dawna L
    Journal of Air Transportation Vol. 11, No. 1 -2006 THE DEVELOPMENT OF JOMO KENYATTA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT AS A REGIONAL AVIATION HUB Evaristus M. Irandu University of Nairobi Nairobi, Kenya Dawna L. Rhoades Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University Daytona Beach, Florida ABSTRACT Air transportation plays an important role in the social and economic development of the global system and the countries that seek to participate in it. As Africa seeks to take its place in the global economy, it is increasingly looking to aviation as the primary means of connecting its people and goods with the world. It has been suggested that Africa as a continent needs to move toward a system of hubs to optimize its scarce resources. Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi, Kenya, is one of the airports in the eastern region of Africa that is seeking to fill this role. This paper discusses the prospects for success and the challenges that it will need to overcome, including projections through 2020 for the growth in passenger and cargo traffic. _____________________________________________________________________________ Evaristus M. Irandu received his Ph.D. in Transport Geography from the University of Nairobi. He is a Senior Lecturer and formerly, the Chairman of the Department of Geography and Environmental Studies in the University of Nairobi. He teaches Economic and Transport Geography, International Tourism and Tourism Management, at both undergraduate and graduate level. His research interests include: aviation planning, liberalization of air transport, non-motorized transport, urban transport, international tourism and ecotourism. His research work has appeared in several journals such as Anatolia: An International Journal of Tourism and Hospitality Research, Asia Pacific Journal of Tourism Research and Environment and Culture.
