Abstract
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory viral infection caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Corona Virus 2. The first case of the infection was confirmed in Wuhan China in 2019, by early March 2020 the infection had spread to all the continents of the World attaining a pandemic status as declared by the World Health Organization on 11th March 2020. Kenya reported its first confirmed COVID-19 case on 13th March 2020, increasing to 5206 cases as reported on 24th June 2020. COVID-19 is a novel infection with no known cure, currently, the mainstay to the infection is through public health measures. These measures are hand hygiene, cough etiquette, face masking and social distancing among others. This review aims to examine the literature on the public health measures which have been used to control outbreaks caused by respiratory viruses. The review will also identify the public health measures which Kenya is using to control the pandemic. A descriptive survey on the confirmed COVID-19 cases in Kenya shows that infection is on the rise and the epidemic curve is on the ascending trajectory. The review informs that the country requires a high level of preparedness to handle COVID-19. The areas to consider include, having robust health care systems with an adequate number of; hospital beds, healthcare workers and personal protective equipment.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
