Drugs residue in livestock products high

Kenya Veterinary Paraprofessional Association said this has been worsened by the opening of unregulated agro-vets in towns.
The chairman John Ngige said over 60 per cent of vets working in rural areas were quacks.
Ngige attributed the high levels of drug residue in the products to the current international ban where the country cannot export its livestock products.
“The country has a very high potential in livestock sector but we are currently banned from exporting our products due to the high drug residue levels,” he said.
He said that the quacks were not advising farmers on the correct use of livestock products after vaccinating them leading to a rise in antibiotic resistance among consumers.
Around 2016 when she was 28, she expressed a desire to conceive. She was advised on the risks and benefits of conception at the time, and the need for regular medical reviews, the team wrote last month in the journal Obstetric Medicine.
Two years later, she had presented at the KNH renal clinic with a six-month pregnancy. She had uncontrolled blood pressure, headache, body swelling, and other symptoms consistent with kidney disease.
She was put on medication to control blood pressure while labour was induced immediately but unfortunately, she lost the baby.
After the ordeal, the doctors say her health improved significantly and she was advised on future conception and put on follow-up renal and postnatal clinics.
