I know of about three people in my constituency who were given a higher dose of chlorine at the age of four. Today the children cannot hear. There were about 100 children from Busia who up to today cannot walk because of medical negligence by a medical doctor. You saw Dr. Kioko when he was giving his preliminary report.
