"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, as we meet here, thousands of Kenyans are meeting in different places to raise money to take their loved ones abroad for treatment. Thousands are at fundraising gatherings to raise money for hospital bills. Thousands of desperate citizens cling to doctors’ prescriptions for months, and even years, because they do not have the money to buy the drugs from pharmacies. We have a crisis in the form of unacceptably high cost of treatment and willful lack of medical facilities, yet the provision of universal healthcare is the stated policy of the Government of Kenya since Independence in 1963. It remains so but to achieve it we must redouble and triple our efforts. We have made significant progress in some areas. However, unless we embark on radical measures, Kenya is likely to miss many of its Millennium Development Goals in the health sector, especially those related to child and maternal health."
