Controversy over ARVs stuck at the port of Mombasa continues to rage, with the Pharmaceutical Society of Kenya (PSK) stating that reverting the Sh1.1 billion consignments to other countries will hurt more than 1.5 million people living with HIV.

Daniella Munene, the PSK Chief Executive Officer, further called on USAid to regularise their processes and align them with the Kenyan government’s requirements.
