The cost of living with Sickle cell is too much for the patients and their families. These critical drugs should be availed on time and at a low cost. UHC for these patients is simply about having access to these drugs. @scutkenya

How do you brand yourself as an African woman journalist?

To get answers to this question, @soila_kenya, via @jamlabafrica, spoke with seven women journalists @ThatStellar, @HannahOjo, @LoveleenIJ, @emcleans, #DakoreEkpendu, #AminaMakori, & #DzifaTetteh. https://t.co/jkrlil0JmS

#EmergencyMedicine just seems not to take in #Kenya. We, @DNHealthyNation ask why?
How many more patients have to die waiting for emergency medical services?

@EMKeFoundation has been training medics across counties to better handle patients in need of #EmergencyMedicine

🧵🧵Today I saw 2 blood appeals raised by friends & families of the patients. It reminded me of 2020 when I had to rally my own appeal as a patient in need of blood before surgery.

I can say that we are slowly but surely transforming our blood, tissue & transplant to accommodate everyone regardless of whether they can make noise or not. @NdukuKilonzo1 that's my take home tonight.

We at @NationAfrica have published our most elaborate climate change issue so far, just days before #COP27. Our journalists spoke to the ordinary man on the street, farmers, victims of flooding, wildfires & pastoralists.
Tomorrow, read why Kenya is facing the worst threat ever.
