"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy, thank you for giving me this opportunity to address this important issue which is on the Floor of the House. First and foremost, let me thank Hon. Wanga for bringing this idea to the House. From the outset, I find it important because we have been talking about diseases and human health in Kenya for many times. We have been doing very little to actualise whatever we have been trying to do. We need to have equipment for treatment of those diseases, the infrastructure, money to buy those equipment and medicine. Most of all, we have been deficient of personnel who should be working with that equipment or treating those diseases. I was shocked when Hon. Wanga gave the statistics of how many oncologists we have in Kenya, and where we can get them. Given the prevalence of cancer in this country, the few she mentioned are just negligible. At the end of the day, we get people who start becoming quacks. People start treating patients with herbs and other unnecessary medicines. People form cartels and purport to take people to India so that they can get treated The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
