That is the only way. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, take any single weekend, go to your county and walk to a hospital. I have done that before and what you see is a sorry state. I once visited my hospital and found dead bodies of a Friday still in the wards on a Sunday. Nobody cares. The local Kenya Medical Training College (KMTC) first year students are the ones manning wards and doing rounds. The doctors we train who take the Hippocratic Oath--- I used to joke with Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale that it has now been turned into an “oath of hypocrisy”. He is talking of being a “Hypocritic oath”."}
