The health crisis will persist in Kenya after doctors rejected a government offer aimed at ending two-week-long strike that has severely disrupted health services.

Nairiobi —

The strike, initiated on March 15 by the KMPDU representing more than 7,000 members, demanded the payment of salary arrears and immediate hiring of trainee doctors, among other grievances. However, Mwachi's rejection underscores the ongoing discord between doctors and the government, prolonging the healthcare crisis, with patients struggling to access care.
