    "content": "suffering from diabetes and high blood pressure. Since these are lifestyle diseases, there is a way that even hospitals at the lowest level, be it in Laikipia or Nandi counties, for example, need to teach our people. It is not a death sentence because you can still manage and enjoy life. I do not know whether there are Members of the Committee on Health here. I hope they will refer to the HANSARD and take note that this is a serious issue. As Parliament, we should also have medical awareness and free medical checkups especially after 9th August. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, once again, I thank Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve for bringing this to the attention of the nation and to all of us. This is a silent killer with no vital signs. As I said, it is about the choices we make in life. Both county and national governments must be at the forefront to ensure our people do not continue to suffer from some of these diseases that can be prevented. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, with those many remarks, I wish all of us, mostly our brothers and sisters suffering from high blood pressure, well. I call upon the sector players in the Ministry of Health to take note of this."
