"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support this Bill because we must not think about joking with lives at any time. Medicine is key. Hon. Osoro is my Member of Parliament for South Mugirango, and I am the County Women Representative for Kisii. As he spoke, I remembered as you walk along Kisii Teaching and Referral Hospital, there are several chemists. Patients will tell you they offer all medicines not offered in the hospital. We are left wondering because we have the best doctors in our hospitals, but they lack medicine. This is a fallacy and it does not add up. It is like attending a class and finding the teacher teaching without books. This Bill will help doctors because they have been treating patients and telling them: “Sorry, we do not have medicine in the hospital, but you can buy it as they walk out in the chemists.” Every day, I ask myself: Why is it that only very cheap paracetamol is available in our hospitals? As for the other medicines, they are out of stock. Many quacks operate those businesses and, sometimes, lives are lost. Others tell patients if they want good treatment, they should go to India. Why leave our dear country to get treatment in another country? This is because there are no regulations. Hon. Temporary Speaker, I support. My brother Kibagendi is complaining. Can you give him two minutes? Thank you."
