“This was the result I least expected. This is because I went the extra mile by having regular exercises taking vitamins such as zinc, vitamin C and D, taking Dawa and going to the sauna, getting steam baths while breathing hot air,” he said.
Wako said he however ignored some signs such as occasionally having difficulty in breathing and dizziness.
“… I had attributed this to a major operation I underwent in 2018. It was a normal occurrence to me,” he said.
Wako narrated that during the funeral of Garissa Senator Yusuf Haji, he could not recall the name of former Prime Minister Raila Odinga.
“…as I was sitting, Raila came to where I was and I asked him who he was. And he asked me back who I was. He then removed his mask and his cap and we all laughed,” he said.
“But that was part of the disorientation. When I went back that evening, I thought it was morning and yet it was evening. This forced me to go to Nairobi hospital to be tested for something else, not Covid-19.”
Wako said the delay of treatment contributed to the seriousness of his case which doctors said was touch and go affair.
“I appeal to Kenyans to get tested immediately if you have the symptoms. Chances of survival are much higher in early detection if you delay it becomes very deadly,” he said.
Wako said his kidneys were temporarily affected but are now functioning 100 per cent.
“For the first time, I was transported into the ambulance. I was forced into it because I knew that I would ride comfortably in my car. There were six people. One of them was holding a gas cylinder because I could not breathe,” he said.
