Nurses strike enters fifth week as maternal deaths surge
The nurses' strike in Kenya has now entered its 37th day and fifth week, with reports indicating a grim toll of 79 deaths during this period. Professional health bodies are expressing alarm over a significant surge in maternal and prenatal deaths, directly linking the increase to the ongoing nurses' strike. Wauguzi wameanza mgomo nchini kote, na kusababisha huduma katika hospitali za umma kufikia kiwango cha chini kabisa. Wagonjwa wengine wanalazimika kurejea majumbani huku wengine wakitafuta matibabu katika hospitali za kibinafsi. However, medical services in Kericho County are improving following the recruitment of nurses on a contractual basis by the County Government.
