Nairobi, 30th September 2024 - The Cabinet Secretary for Health, Dr. Deborah Mlongo Barasa, flagged off essential health products and commodities today in preparation for the Social Health Authority (SHA) rollout on 1st October 2024.

During the event, Dr. Barasa commended the efforts of the Ministry of Health, KEMSA, and healthcare workers in improving access to healthcare across the country.
