We could all see how medical oxygen was life-saving in COVID. @hewa_tele is a great example of local innovation for equitable access to oxygen. Proud @gchallenges 🇨🇦 was an early supporter. #WHA77

I had the chance to sit down with Dr. @BernardOlayo to learn more about his efforts to localize the production of medical oxygen in Kenya — which is currently a net importer of the commodity.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, Kenya was unable to support its population with medical oxygen. A local social enterprise is working to change that.

We can Increase Access to Medical Oxygen For All, explains @philips, @pathtweets & Dr @BernardOlayo. Lack of O2 is one of the world’s leading killers. This team shows that by treating oxygen as a utility we can save millions of lives. https://t.co/MSHQPdYvQK
