@kipkoecheruiyot Mkate pia ilikua luxury on special days😂

Huko Alliance High School mmesema mlikuwa mnakula nini? High school na mlikuwa mnapewa sausages, fish, chicken, pilau, etc? Na ilikuwa self service? Shule yetu kitu ya self service ilikuwa maji moto ya kukoroga nayo drinking chocolate na watu walikuwa wanapigania kushinda pokot warrior ameona ng’ombe free huko Loruk. Special meal shule yetu ilikuwa rice na beans, na hiyo ilikuwa special meal ya walimu, sisi wanafunzi uji ilikuwa ikiiva vizuri ndio special meal. Shule yetu siku ya mala ya Kapsowar mountain milk kila mwalimu alikuwa duty ndio at least wabadilishe diet. Maisha huko Kapchesewes Mixed day and boarding high school wasn’t for the faint hearted.

@kipkoecheruiyot Daktari hakuna ya kupaka😂

Eldoret unaambia mtu outpatient “ukimeza hii dawa hakuna kunywa pombe,” anakuuliza “hakuna ya kupaka?” Hiyo town vijana wanajua “kubeat ceremony.”

Kenya Positions Itself as a Regional mRNA Manufacturing Hub Kenya today officially launched the WHO–MPP mRNA Technology Transfer Project, marking a major step toward advanced vaccine manufacturing and national health sovereignty. The event was presided over by Dr. @fnoluga, Principal Secretary for @MOHMedServices Services. It brought together representatives from @WHOKenya and the @MedsPatentPool, leadership of @BioVaxInstitute and @KEMRI_Kenya , the @ppbkenya, development partners, and industry stakeholders, including @thermofisher. With this launch, Kenya joins just five other African countries selected into the WHO–MPP Programme. The milestone signals the country’s commitment to building sustainable, sovereign biomanufacturing capacity. In his remarks, Board Chairman Dr. Charles Githinji emphasized the importance of strong governance, regulatory excellence, and long-term sustainability to anchor the Programme’s success. Dr. Oluga challenged Kenyan scientists to fully exploit the mRNA platform, innovate beyond COVID-19, and apply the technology to priority diseases and future health threats. Through this technology transfer, Kenya BioVax Institute will gain end-to-end mRNA manufacturing know-how, strengthen local technical expertise, and establish a scalable platform to produce future vaccines and therapeutics locally—positioning Kenya as a credible regional hub for advanced biopharmaceutical innovation. #KenyaBioVax #mRNATechnology @BiosafetyKenya #HealthSecurity #PandemicPreparedness @MOH_Kenya #PAVM #Biomanufacturing #LocalManufacturing #GlobalHealth @BD_Africa @MichaelLusiola @RVMCollab

Did you know cervical cancer is preventable, yet it’s Kenya's 2nd leading cause of cancer-related deaths among women, with approximately 5,800 new cases and 3,600 deaths reported annually? Through human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination, early and consistent screening, and timely treatment, we can ensure that fewer women die from this disease. This #SRHAwarenessDay, #IamAPHRC is advocating for greater measures to protect our girls and women and to strengthen reproductive healthcare provision. More information. Greater access to services. Stronger health systems. #APHRCResearch #IamAPHRC #WeAreAfrica @amveyange @CKyobutungi @DMdiarafa @RatemoJuliet @williamsila @DorcasOdhiambo @MangwanaVJ @deborahndlovu @ndonyesarah @njerimbuthia @Chris_Maero @dia_diama @ChristineGer22 @MangwanaVJ @Hope_shete @MuliDavis @Wekesah @CharityWaweru @Waithaka_KE @isabelmutuku1 @Liz_Kimani @FlorahKarimi @cwkabiru

Profound: Behind every cancer case reported to cancer registry is a patient who needs services. Registries are crucial assets to guide patient care, prioritisation and improve quality of life. Happy 25th anniversary @CancerReg_KE. #KASH2026 #KASHConference

Marking the silver jubilee for @CancerReg_KE at #KASH2026 the need for collaborations, integrating technology (AI, digitisation) and data linkage are key for sustainable, resilient , responsive registries. @GICR_IARC @WHOKenya @uicc @AfricaCDC @NCIKenya @kesho

The Head, National Cancer Registry @NCIKenya, @GladysKenya stated; "Cancer registration is everyone's responsibility, if you can get cancer, you can report cancer to the registry" @GICR_IARC @uicc @Intercancer @CancerProgramKE #KASH2026 #KASHConference
