The New Wave is Sweeping Healthcare in Kenya

In the history of Medicine, there has never been such an age as this one. A brief view a global perspective, we are experiencing unprecedented discoveries and innovations. We are likewise experiencing a shift from the traditional way of doing things. The trade of medicine has been spiced with great input form the contemporary world. In the ealry part of the year, we witnessed seriea of strikes by docotrs in a number of the countries. With time, the public, doctors included have discovered that the government undrstands the only one language- MASS ACTION or strikes if youl ike. Egypt did very well and their demands were met despite the prevailing autocracy and dictatorship by the then presiden. In kenya, we seen to be headed that route. The kenya doctors have unanimously said that for a long time, they have been left in the cold as they pretended that all was well. People who have spent yrs and yrs in schools, earning less that cleaners in the treasury and Kenya revenue Authroity. doctors who cannot afford a medical cover or access to quality healthcare, yet they are in the business of saving lives The same doctors scroutching in servants quarters, living undignified lifes as they push themselves hard 'to save lives' in the history of this land, Kenya has never been this free, whereby all persons enjoy certian rights. The right to strike, picket and aks for better pay is what doctors want to express. Let all Kenyans of goodwill and the world at large know that doctors love their work. But reality checks in and they realize they cannot just live in deinal for ever. It is time their plight is looked into for the benfits of all I salute the KMPDU and its leadership!
