Kenyan doctors have launched a nationwide strike while working in government hospitals. They have done so over inadequate insurance benefits and lack of protective equipment (PPE). They were treating COVID-19 patients. The strike began on Monday. This happened after the Kenya Medical Practitioners, Pharmacists and Dentists Union posted on Twitter. They posted that there had been no resolution of grievances. They were raised over the last eight months.
The Kenya government has neglected very important things. They neglected the Welfare, Safety & Health of health care workers as informed by the union on Sunday. There was no provision of medical insurance, Workman injury benefits & Compensation. There was also a lack of adequate quality PPEs. This exaggerates the fight against #COVID19 during a country with an acute shortage of doctors.” a minimum of 14 doctors have died of the coronavirus in Kenya since the primary case was confirmed in March, consistent with the doctors union.
