He also reiterated the need for collaboration and cooperation by the counties for the initiative's success.
During his remarks, Dr Ndirangu lauded the government's commitment to prioritising primary health care, evident in the provision of 100,000 CHP kits and their strategic deployment across all 47 counties.
