Nairobi County Government employees have been directed to offer in-person services to only fully vaccinated individuals.
Consequently, all non-vaccinated and even those who have received one dose would not be allowed entry into offices, parks, halls and other facilities managed by the county.
On Wednesday evening, the devolved unit reactivated a national government directive of December 22, 2021, barring unvaccinated persons from accessing State and other social services.
Despite an existing court order to stop implementation of the guidelines, the Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) instructed all sub-county medical and public health officers to ensure the directive is implemented to the letter.
NMS Director of Health Dr Ouma Oluga also instructed the medical and public health officers to work closely with multi-agency teams in their respective sub-counties to enforce the directive.
“Reference is made to an update on Covid and response measures dated December 22, 2021 from the Ministry of Health on enforcement of guidelines on vaccination against coronavirus,” Oluga said in a letter dated January 5 to all medical and public health officers in the city.
