Mombasa, Kenya: A four-day-old baby boy with a defective rectum is among the 300 patients admitted at the Coast General Hospital with no medical assistance due to a go-slow by health workers at the infirmary.
Nurses at the hospital have been on strike for a week, protesting lack of supplies and non-payment of their July salaries.
