Health Cabinet Secretary Hon Aden Duale has held a strategic engagement with a Chinese delegation to discuss the establishment of local vaccine and pharmaceutical production hubs using Chinese technology.
The delegations, led by Ambassador H.E. Ms Guo Haiyan, focused on a transformative USD 500 million (Sh64.5billion) joint initiative aimed at strengthening Kenya’s supply chains, reducing import dependency, creating employment in line with the government’s development agenda, and positioning Kenya as a continental leader in health product manufacturing—a vision expected to materialise by 2028 with support from the Chinese government.
