Did u include the numerous Clinical Officers (small of the docs) who do most of the doc's work so effectively?

I did not include clinical officers here, I have to say I have very little regard for the COs. Some of my high school classmates that ended up to be COs are people that I wouldnt entrust my kid's health with (no disrespect at all) but its an overstatement to claim they do MOs work effectively

@kiterunner those are the ones in public. there is quite a number in private
anyway was always told med was a calling...if this gen Ys wanted ksh they picked the wrong course. in med you need at least 15 years of sch n experience to have a chance to get rich

Most do their work quite well. These KMTC graduates may not be as informed as docs, but they are the ones who man health centres esp in the rural areas. And they do the much of the doctor's work esp in regard to common ailments/injuries/maternity and they do it well. That is the reality, and in fact, quite a number are jobless. This country has been hemorrhaging doctors due to poor pay. Im not defending anybody. I would love to hear burning spear's comments on this.

Comparatively, when they say our KDF is small, they forget the relatively large national police force, half of which is paramilitary.

According to ur stats it means for every doctor we have he/she needs to treat 17391 patients.
Only in Kenya
