    "content": "Last month, an employee of Migori County Government lost his life at the only referral hospital we have in my county, which is Migori Level 5 Referral Hospital, because there was no supply of drugs and blood. That is unfortunate. You can imagine how many people lose their lives in Migori and other counties because they cannot access blood supplies because there is no facility in the county to keep blood and make it available for use when it is wanted. Such is the kind of situation that this piece of legislation seeks to address to ensure that we develop legislative infrastructure to ensure that the focus of medical supplies in the counties is done in consultation with our county governments and the boards that will be set up. It also aims to ensure substantive resources are allocated by the national Government. Counties will also have their members in the boards that will be identified and recommended by the Council of Governors (CoG), so that we do not have the national Government having both the knife and the yam. It is like having the money and making decisions not based on firm policy but perhaps the mood of the national Government on who gets medicine or medical supplies."
