Education Cabinet Secretary Prof George Magoha has cleared final year medical students to resume face-to-face learning and assessment saying the move will boost the country’s medical sector that is currently under strain due to Covid-19 pandemic.

In a circular sent to nine universities currently training medical students, Prof Magoha said the Covid-19 pandemic had ‘precipitated the need to assess’ medical students so as to increase the number of medical personnel in the health facilities.
