"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. Whenever I hear anything to do with health, I tag myself to every word, comma and full stop. First of all, every case that is taken to the hospital should be treated as an emergency and every hospital should be well equipped. I support this Bill. In Kenya, if you go to most hospitals without a shilling, you will die. In fact, this amendment should add that anyone who goes to a hospital, whether they have money or not, should be treated first. Doctors and nurses are in those hospitals to save lives first and not to make money. In Kenya, if you do not have money, you cannot be treated. This is as a result of the gap between the rich and the poor. People are drawn to support and help someone who appears to be monied. This Bill is good for all of us. You can never know when an emergency will befall you. Whether you are the President, a boda boda rider or an ordinary mwananchi, anything can happen to you. One day you may wake up healthy, but get involved in an accident and become disabled if someone does not take action quickly. Every hospital should have an emergency care unit to handle emergencies first before asking for the mode of payment. Thank you."
