🙏@Gladys_Gachanja for a well moderated conversation with knowledgeable & articulate panelists @KoitabaHazel @andrewmulwa @erickokioma @angienguku & Videliz Njoki of @giftedPWDcentre this morning on why the right to health should inform the #COVID19KE response. @Your_WorldNTV 🧵 1st take🏡:Healthcare should be designed & delivered from the perspective of people not diseases.
