People in Kenya are saying they're being treated inhumanely in mandatory quarantine.

More than 2,000 Kenyans and foreigners were ordered to stay in hotels and government facilities after arriving in the country. Now, in facilities where there's been a confirmed case of coronavirus, the quarantine period is being extended from 14 days to one month.

Some have said they're being treated like prisoners, and are asking why the isolation period should be extended. They've previously complained that they haven't had access to basics, such as soap and water.

But Health Minister Mutahi Kagwe accused people of breaking the rules, and even of having parties while in isolation.

There are 126 confirmed cases of the virus in Kenya.
