I love the way people are coming together to support each other; jobs, bills, or just showing up. But it is also a marker that things are not okay. It never used to be like this, and something has to give.

"He couldn't impress his HOD enough." That's what his friends said after Dr. Vinod Kumar Goud, a young pediatrics resident, ended his life. He worked 40 hours without rest. He was insulted in public. He was even asked for costly gifts. This isn't education. It's cruelty. Every

Multichoice (DSTV) will probably suffer the same fate that befell Kodak, Nokia, Blackberry, Compaq, and Yahoo. They have refused to adapt to changing markets and technology. Losing 84% of customers in one year is catastrophic.

Some things worry me a lot. Just checked RUPHA membership and look at places like Kajiado, Kwale, Nyamira. If those number of facilities withdraw services, the impact will be felt by mwananchi. All because, govt wants to play politics with health care. Devastating.
