    "content": "Since COVID-19 started and interventions began in counties, it is painful to find that sometimes even items that can be made by local communities like masks are procured outside the county. If we want to ensure communities are engaging with COVID-19 and raising awareness, we need to bring these communities on board. That way, when it even comes to procuring these items, let them also procure what they are able to make. I have seen quite a number of people and even Persons with Disabilities (PwDs) making masks, but no one to sell to. This is an opportunity for us to buy Kenyan because when we buy Kenyan, we support Kenyans. Sometimes we import things that we are able to make locally. There is need for counties to ensure that they are giving an opportunity to youth, women and PwDs who can give these services. When they offer the services, they should be paid promptly. If we want to be successful, we must involve the common man in all our agenda. Eventually, we will be successful as a country."
