20 mins from Athi River Mlolongo to Westlands using @mojaexpressway aboard @Boltapp_ke my cabbie the day @DavidNzosh advised we use Red Hill bypass to @VillageMarket to Ruaka pick the lady then head to @HospitalMathari

Nairobi Expressway during emergencies is a game changer

Dr @CKyobutungi Thanks for reaching out to help
At last the patient has been admitted

@HospitalMathari is the CHEAPEST opening a file is 200shs

Gov @SakajaJohnson chanua mayouth Mathare Hospital isn’t a death sentence
Lakini @nhifkenya Niko na Swali

Jana we rescued a suicidal 24yr old took her to @HospitalMathari

WHY isn’t there PUBLIC info that with NHIF you can access treatment at Mathari?

How many more youths will DIE by suicide ?

Only time I see NHIF trending is negative stories?

Dear @KindikiKithure CS @InteriorKE

I would like to report an issue of Public interest

PLEASE audit CRISIS & GBV Hotlines in 🇰🇪

This morning at 3am @DrMutungaEA from Uganda called me to flag an assault case of a @kmpdu
medic in Limuru who was also suicidal

cc @ray_omollo Image
Called the Medic

She was in distress and was sobbing 😭 told me she was bleeding 🩸 & had locked 🔒 herself

I could hear the partner banging on the door 🚪 threatening her

Called @NPSOfficial_KE hotlines 999/112 both were down

@DCI_Kenya’s Fichua 080 0722203 not picked ImageImage
Also logged @PoliceKE website to look for contacts since the anchor 👮🏿‍♂️ Hotlines 999/112 were down

SHOCKING NEWS 🆘

This is the #StateOfBlood in Kenya

@KNBTSOfficial Bank Banks are EMPTY

❌ drivers
❌ vehicles grounded
❌ Gloves
❌ Blood bags
❌ Strapping materials
❌ Distilled water to test & screen blood & blood products
❌ Cold room broken down

Thread ⤵️ Kenya National Blood Transfusion Services (KNBTS) Dispatch Centre EMPTY NO BLOOD
It’s really SAD blood donors turning up at @KNBTSOfficial centres to donate blood are being turned away as there are no gloves , no blood bags , no strapping bags or refreshments needed to conduct bleeding 💉 #StateofBlood
As #DigitalHumanitarian we get about 10 blood appeals daily via social media, @HumanitarianDig

I also keep getting calls from people who need help to get blood , it’s emotional draining

KNBTS doesn’t have any blood or blood products in stock
