Thank you, Bwana PS, for visiting and highlighting the work we are doing towards solving the snakebite crisis in Kenya. @K_SRIC @MOH_Kenya @PublicHealthMoH
Replying to @Profshaukat
@primateresearch appreciating extraction of venom for antivenom. It is estimated in 🇰🇪 we have annual 20,000 snake bites, with up to 4,000 deaths and 7,000 serious disabilities. We need to produce our own antivenom to enhance efficacy. In Kenya, a single vial typically costs between KSh 4,700 and KSh 8,500. We need to fund for production and commercialization @koske_felix @MusaliaMudavadi @nacosti @nrfkenya @KENIAupdates @OfficePCS_KE
