The doctors' union KPMDU has refuted claims by the government that it has released funds to cater for the doctors' salary increment. The doctors say whatever had been given out was to cater for different things and not their demands. They also say the doctors will continue with their strike on Wednesday as they march from the Kenyatta National Hospital to the Treasury. The doctors say they are tired of presiding over deaths at public hospitals due to lack of facilities urging the public to play their part in demanding for better health services from the government.
