Protest and pain – Kenya’s month-long doctors’ strike
In Kenya, doctors have been on strike for a month now, protesting against poor working conditions and low pay. The strike has caused widespread pain and suffering for patients who are unable to access medical care.
The doctors are demanding better working conditions, including adequate protective equipment and facilities to treat patients. They are also asking for a pay increase to reflect the important work they do in saving lives.
The government has been in talks with the doctors’ union to try and resolve the strike, but so far no agreement has been reached. Patients continue to suffer as hospitals are understaffed and unable to provide the necessary medical care.
It is a difficult situation for all involved, with both doctors and patients feeling the impact of the ongoing strike. The hope is that a resolution can be reached soon so that patients can receive the care they need and doctors can work in safe and fair conditions.
