13th-day strike by healthcare workers in Kenya over 2017/2021 CBA implementation and medical intern postings.
Healthcare workers in Kenya, including doctors, pharmacists, and medical students, are on strike for the 13th day, protesting in Nakuru to demand the implementation of the 2017/2021 Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) and the posting of medical interns. They accuse Health Cabinet Secretary Susan Nakhumincha of politicizing health issues and call for the resolution of their issues as a matter of urgency. The strike has led to paralysis of services in public health facilities, with patients seeking services in private health facilities.
