Stephen Mogusu was employed on a temporary contract and was never paid for the five months he worked in a COVID-19 ward at a public hospital in the town of Machakos, doctors who knew him told Reuters.
Mogusu told Kenya’s Nation newspaper after falling ill that he could not afford diapers for his 5-month old daughter.
Now his body is lying in the hospital morgue instead of being released to his family because his wife, another doctor, can’t pay the bill of more than 1 million Kenyan shillings ($9,000), according to a letter the Kenya Medical Association shared with Reuters.
