Kenya Women Parliamentary Association (KEWOPA) has called on government to increase funding for child immunisation amidst the US funding freeze which has crippled programs and left millions of children vulnerable.
KEWOPA said the government's delay in fulfilling its co-financing obligations could lead to severe vaccine shortages and jeopardize child health nationwide.
MPs warned that millions of children remain vulnerable unless the government steps up to bridge the funding gap. "This is not a matter for further delay - the health of our children is at stake.
Timely payment is essential to ensure a continuous and reliable vaccine supply," KEWOPA said in a statement.
