1- I create a virtual env: mkvirtualenv kerasTH
2- I install keras using pip install keras
3- That's the output for pip list

When I run python and then import keras I get this error ImportError: Keras requires TensorFlow 2.2 or higher. Install TensorFlow via `pip install tensorflow`
I edited the .keras/keras.json file to have the following:
{
"image_dim_ordering": "th",
"epsilon": 1e-07,
"floatx": "float32",
"backend": "theano"
}
I used
import os
os.environ['KERAS_BACKEND'] = 'theano'
Used KERAS_BACKEND='theano' python script.py but I am still getting the same error. Not sure how to switch to theano, any suggestions ?

Keras 2.4 is actually just a wrapper on top of tf.keras, meaning that it does not support multiple backends, only the TensorFlow backend.
So you would need to use Keras 2.3, which does still support multiple backends.
