Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale has threatened arrests over viral social media claims that Kenya is exporting human blood, clarifying that trade data was misinterpreted.

• False reports alleged Kenya exported "Human and animal blood; microbial cultures" worth USD552,010 (approx. Ksh71.2 million) in 2024.
• The Ministry of Health dismisses these claims, stating the trade classification includes vaccines and other pharmaceutical products, not donated blood.
• The Ministry of Health will collaborate with investigative agencies to apprehend individuals spreading misleading health information.
