"content": "Thank you Madam Temporary Speaker. I am very cognizant of the time, but I thank you. Just in conclusion, I want to encourage the Ministry of Health to come up with training on how the medical personnel in the hospitals can deal with the issues of psychological trauma, like PTSD. Currently, we do not know the number of people being diagnosed. However, if anybody is suspected of having been infected with the COVID-19, how do they deal with the issue of self-quarantining, which the CS has said is the law? If you do not self-quarantine, then you face the risk of going to jail. As I finalise, it is important for us, as we go back to our constituencies and counties, to educate our people. Some of our people have no clue of what is happening in Nairobi. They hear of COVID-19 and ask what it is. This will give us an opportunity, regardless of whether we have an oversight kitty, to go there. Take some time and set our political differences aside, sit down with governors, share our ideas, go down to the markets, educate the people and make sure that the Ministry of Health can produce and distribute enough sanitizers. If there are no sanitizers, we should do what this company has done today. I want to recognize this company - I think it is called Pwani Oil Industries - because they have reduced the price of soap and cooking oil. That shows they care about the people."
