The negotiations have largely sidelined the Ministry of Health, focusing heavily on the Ministry of Finance. This raises serious questions about policy alignment and who is protecting our national health priorities. @HonAdenDuale#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
Kenya is currently negotiating a new U.S. health compact under the #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy. The deal is secret, and the lack of clarity is alarming. We are simply asking: What are the terms? We demand transparency that upholds our Constitutional Rights. @HonAdenDuale
Health decisions that affect millions of Kenyans, covering HIV services, family planning, and maternal care, must never be made behind closed doors. Secrecy undermines public trust and risks the foundational principle of Constitutional Rights to health. #ProtectKenyaHealth
We call on all Kenyans to actively engage in this discussion. Your voice is powerful. Demand that your local representative publicly confirm they are fighting for transparency and the protection of our Constitutional Rights. #HealthIsOurRight#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
@HonAdenDuale@psmuthoni Civic awareness is our greatest tool. Please educate your networks on the potential risks of secret health compacts. An informed public ensures that the government is held accountable to the Constitutional Rights of its people. #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
What steps should our representatives take right now to ensure this new compact is reviewed publicly before signing? Public dialogue is critical to safeguarding our collective Constitutional Rights. #ConstitutionalRightsKE#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
Why the surveillance and data conditionality? Are our digital security protocols robust enough to handle the data demands of this compact? We need immediate answers to protect our data privacy and Constitutional Rights. #ProtectKenyaHealth#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
Should the focus of a U.S.-Kenya health compact be on emergency preparedness, public health coordination, or specific service delivery conditions? Where do you think Kenya's Constitutional Rights are most vulnerable? #KeepKenyaHealthy#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
If the agreement includes terms that go against Kenya’s current policies on family planning, what recourse do we have? We must know the mechanism for protecting our Sovereignity and upholding our Constitutional Rights #HealthIsOurRight#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
@psmuthoni@SingoeiAKorir It’s vital to remember that demanding transparency is an act of patriotism. We are standing up for the Sovereignty of our country and defending the Constitutional Rights of our citizens against potential foreign policy interference. This is about Kenya first. #ProtectKenyaHealth
Seeing the incredible efforts of Kenyan health workers over the years makes this secrecy particularly frustrating. They deserve to know that the agreements governing their work uphold, not hinder, their mission. #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy@JohnMbadiN@USEmbassyKenya
@psmuthoni@SingoeiAKorir For young people, access to comprehensive health information is a lifesaver. If this compact restricts that access, it directly risks their future. Protecting their Constitutional Rights to knowledge is protecting their health. #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy@psmuthoni
@USEmbassyKenya When the integrity of our national health system is at stake, every detail matters. We demand a deal that strengthens, not silences, our ability to provide comprehensive care. Our Constitutional Rights depend on robust, independent systems. #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
Our concern is rooted in past similar U.S. compacts in other countries that blocked vital services like family planning and access to HIV prevention information. Our Constitutional Rights must guarantee this won't happen here. #AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy@psmuthoni
@USEmbassyKenya Data conditionality and surveillance clauses are another serious worry. What data will be collected, and how will it be secured? We must ensure any agreement respects privacy and digital Constitutional Rights of Kenyans. #TransparencyNow#AmericaFirstGlobalHealthStrategy
