Kenyatta National Hospital.
Striking healthcare workers have maintained that they will not call off their strike unless their demands are met.
This came even as the Council of Governors (CoG) said it won't pay the striking medics, spelling doom for patients who have now been forced to seek medical services from private hospitals.
At a press briefing yesterday at the Kenyatta National Hospital, nurses union representatives protested alleged intimidation and coercion to have the striking health workers go back to work.

The Kenya National Union of Nurses (KNUN) has advised its members to stay put as their strike over poor working conditions heads to its 40th day.
Even though the union had a sitting with the Ministry of Health and reached an agreement on December 31, 2020, the government’s commitment in signing is the missing link in the stalemate that has crippled the health sector.

STRIKING Kenyan doctors and nurses have made it clear that no threat will force them back to hospitals.
Nurses and clinical officers stood their ground after a meeting meant to resolve their strike flopped.
They were joined on strike by doctors on Monday with both doctors and nurses demanding better working conditions and enhanced allowances, among other issues.
Doctors had suspended their strike for 14 days to allow for more talks, but on Saturday, they announced resumption of the strike on Monday.
Doctors on Sunday vowed not to return to work until the Government addresses their demands.

Crisis deepens as doctors join striking medics

“We have no deal and the strike continues as announced.”
Mr Wachira said the ongoing talks for the past two weeks were bound to fail since neither the Ministry of Health nor Council of Governors officials were present.
“Unfortunately we were here by 10am. The secretariat (in charge of the negotiations) asked us to wait for the Labour CS and CoG chair. At 1pm we were told they were not coming,” said Kuco General Secretary George Gibore.
Mr Gibore said no healthcare worker, including the ones being hired, would return to work until the government meets all their demands.
Counties such as Kisumu have issued notices to sack medics. The notice, signed by the county Chief Officer in charge of Health and Sanitation Gregory Ganda, directed the medics to return to work in seven days, or lose their jobs.
