Patients seeking diagnosis at public health facilities in Homa Bay County have a sigh of relief after medical laboratory officers ended their strike.
Through the Kenya Union of Medical Laboratory Officers (KUMLO), the medics called off the strike which started on January 6 after signing a return to work agreement with the County Secretary (CS) Isaiah Ogwe who was accompanied by the Health chief officer Gerald Akeche.
The officers downed their tools over a number of grievances including failure by the county to recognise their union, lack of promotion and lack of Personal Protective Equipment (PPEs).
