"content": "Well spoken. Hon. Members, even as we contribute, it is this National Assembly, as rightly pointed out by the Hon. (Dr.) Otiende Amollo earlier, that deliberates and resolves matters of concern to the people. Let us ask ourselves a simple question: The covert mechanism is the one that offers this vaccine to the poorer countries so to speak. What we have received in this country in the initial stages is 1.02 million and then an extra 100,000 donation from India. Therefore, that totals to 1.1 million. The first vaccination must target to give two doses to each of you who has received the first dose. So, essentially, you can see what size of the population it is that is going to be addressed by this. Indeed, as a House that is also involved - as Hon. Duale was saying earlier - in the budget-making processes, we must address the issue of the vaccines. Look at the population. Just about half a million people. It is a very small population that is targeted to be vaccinated with the current stock of what we have. I think it is just food for thought. I am sure Dr. Nyikal will be speaking to this at some point. Let us give the Member for Kangema, the Chair of the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs a chance because item No. 4 relates to his Committee."
