The Central Organization of Trade Unions (COTU) has hit out at the government for frustrating workers in the health sector and prolonging the crisis in public hospitals. COTU official Benson Okwaro, is also unhappy with the SRC for its hard stance on the review of salaries of health workers. As the nurses strike hits the one week mark, talks have stalled. Still it is expected that they will pick up in the coming week. Leila Mohammed brings us more on a crisis that has had an even bigger impact in a shorter time than the 100-day doctors' strike.
