    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. The Vice Chairperson has struggled to pronounce some of the medical terms, but all the same, I thank her for the statement. In response to the first question as to whether the Cabinet Secretary is aware, the Vice Chairperson says that the Ministry is aware of the reported Malaria outbreak in Kakamega and Vihiga counties. She goes ahead to say that we can see the details of the investigations carried out in the appendix to this statement which she has attached as Appendix No.1. In the appendix, the Vice Chairperson says that the two counties fall under the endemic region of Malaria transmission where the transmission cycle spans the entire year. Therefore, an outbreak is very unlikely to be caused by innate immunity acquired over the years by the population. This is a contradiction because she says in her answer that, yes, she is aware. However, in the appendix that she has attached, she says that people there have acquired immunity, and, therefore, an outbreak is unlikely. I want to know clearly whether there was an outbreak or not. Secondly, what entails an outbreak? She has given us some statistics here of Kakamega County with 1,192 cases from January to June this year and then goes ahead to say that it is not an outbreak. Thirdly, I want to know how many people died from Malaria in that period."
