Kenya is among the 13 countries where the Near Point of Care (NPOC) is being rolled out.
Now available at affordable pricing, the new tests make decentralized, high-quality molecular diagnostics possible at scale, creating an opportunity to transform the fight against TB.

Kenya’s first reported Ebola case is a sobering reminder that pandemic preparedness needs to begin way before a disease arrives.
Preparedness is about investing in strong health systems, surveillance, laboratories, trained health workers and, importantly, informed communities.

CS Duale: The Ministry of Health wishes to inform members of the public that it has confirmed the first imported case of Ebola. This patient is a Kenyan citizen who has been living in DRC for the past 7 years.

[Amref Health Africa in Kenya @Amref_Kenya]

Kenya’s first confirmed Ebola case underscores why preparedness cannot wait for an emergency.

Strong surveillance, infection prevention and control, equipped health workers, effective rapid response systems and informed communities are critical to preventing further transmission.

Amref Health Africa continues to work alongside government and communities to strengthen health systems to prevent, detect and respond to public health threats.

Psssst...we know it's Friday but..

What does transition and sustainability mean for TB? How does it change our advocacy to ensure that recipients of care stay on treatment?

#TB affects people in different ways. For some, the journey does not end when they finish treatment.

Patricia Bond is one of those #TB champions. She survived MDR-TB, but the disease and its treatment left lasting effects on her life. She lost her nursing career, has hearing loss and is now losing her sight.

Read Patricia’s full, heart-wrenching story here: https://t.co/HNh6p5Z3l7

Like her, you too can share your #TB story in writing or in a video on our TB Awareness Wall. #Sitshele

Why does TB still kill millions every year – and how can new near-point-of-care (NPOC) testing help close the gap?

In 60 seconds, @GlobalFund TB expert Dr. Melanie Kitongo explains how NPOC testing can bring fast, accurate diagnosis closer to where people first seek care – helping close the diagnostic gap that has slowed progress for too long.

Episode 1 of our 60 seconds with a TB expert series. Stay tuned for more.

Before buying over-the-counter cough medicine, a quick screening could save a life.
Pharmacists are our first line of defense. By asking about persistent coughs, night sweats, and weight loss, they can catch TB early and guide patients to testing.

Last weekend, Stop TB Kenya, alongside partners, engaged the religious sector in a free TB screening and testing outreach at Citam Kitengela, with more than 400 community members reached.

Together, we can bring TB services closer to communities and accelerate efforts to end TB.

Sustainable financing remains central to Kenya’s efforts to end TB.

@KELINKenya joined @NTLDKenya, @StopTBKe, the Parliamentary Health Committee, Parliamentary TB Caucus and other stakeholders for a Health Financing Meeting.

Discussions focused on TB financing gaps, domestic resource mobilisation, emerging technologies and sustaining TB interventions beyond donor support.

For @KELINKenya, these conversations are key to ensuring that communities, human rights and sustainability remain at the centre of Kenya’s TB response.

@StopTB @Amref_Kenya @NTLDKenya @CHSKenya @TBChampions_ke @KELINKenya @WHOKenya @GlobalTBCaucus @MOH_Kenya The engagement is also focusing on sustaining TB implementation beyond donor support. This platform is hence a crucial opportunity for TB partners and key stakeholders to engage the legislators on sustainable financing for TB prevention, care and control.
