"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Speaker. I rise to support the Bill. The fundamental human right to life is enshrined in our Constitution through the Bill of Rights. Whoever goes against that right becomes inconsistent and repugnant to natural laws and justice. Our doctors take the Hippocratic Oath to preserve or protect lives, and our nurses take the Nightingale Pledge to act professionally. Therefore, if a hospital refers a patient to another hospital, they should take care of that patient until such a time when the patient arrives at the referred hospital. They should ensure that they preserve life and protect the patient. In our Kenyan system, you find that a patient is taken to a hospital and left there to die because procedures are being followed for this patient to be admitted in the hospital they have been referred to. We have a right as a nation to protect and preserve lives. Thank you."
