Every minute counts in saving a mother’s life during childbirth. That is why we are scaling up life-saving drugs, including 1.5m doses of heat-stable carbetocin—shifting from policy to delivery at the frontline. But this goes beyond medicines. We are strengthening blood banks, equipping facilities and deploying ambulances across all counties to ensure timely care. No woman should be turned away because she cannot pay. Through the Social Health Authority, we are working to remove financial barriers. At #IMNHC2026, I made it clear: success is not in the discussions, but in outcomes. We must ensure that when a mother walks into a facility—she must leave alive, holding a healthy child.
