Speaking while handing over the ministry to the new CS Susan Wafula, Kagwe thanked the media for providing coverage during the Covid-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to say a special thank you to the media. I really want to thank you all those days you came out here and stood waiting for press conference every single day without fail,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>He also teased social media users, whom he said made a lot of memes during his reign. &#8220;I know you made a lot of memes out of me.&#8221; Kagwe took over the ministry of health in February 2020. And March 2020, Kenya reported the first Covid-19 case.<\/p>\n<p>While delivering Covid updates during press conferences, he made sentiments that went viral. He caused a light moment when reminding restaurants and public places not to attend or offer any service to people who are not vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll restaurants and public places are reminded not to admit persons who have not been vaccinated. For you to go out to public places, please get vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p>Let us not relent in the fight against this unseen enemy. Like I always say, if you treat this disease normally it will treat you abnormally,\u201d Kagwe said.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes he would scold those who were careless about their well-being and measures to combat the pandemic. Kagwe sometimes reprimanded Kenyans who were being careless with the Covid restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI can get it, you can get it,\u201d he said when he warned Kenyans against disregarding the rules.<\/p>\n<p>These words took social media by storm and youths immediately dived into it to create memes. The memes helped pass critical messages that youths understand better during the pandemic.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/kenya\">Kenya<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Kenya.
