This is a brand new week, while clinical officers are still out here suffering due to the delay in their posting...why is @MOH_Kenya @DrJ_Mburu @Nakhumicha_S@coc_ke not addressing this issues? Why is everyone silent (apart from @KUCO) when it comes to the issues of these.....
Mental health cases currently bedevilling health workers are caused by insensitivity and unresponsiveness by @MOH_Kenya and @KenyaGovernors. There is need to ensure prioritization of health workers' welfare. UHC staff and Interns do not have to demonstrate to get basic info.

Just In
All the 1840 Clinical Medicine students who completed studies from various institutions are yet to be posted for mandatory internship. They have asked me to ask Ministry of Health and @Nakhumicha_S about plans to solve the stalemate. Rem 4000 doctors are languishing too.
This week I wanna tackle only one thing. The health sector. Most nurses and doctors are suffering. This is too much. Many have completed their studies and not getting the internships in order to get their licenses. They are really going through shit.
A thread.
