Kenya to launch new lab to test pharmaceutical drugs

Kenya has made great strides in dealing with substandard and counterfeit medicines in the market following the establishment of a Pharmaceutical Microbiology laboratory. According to the World Health Organisation, over 100,000 deaths are reported annually in Sub-Saharan Africa due to the use of substandard and falsified medical products. The lab, by the Mission for Essential Drugs and Supplies (Meds), is set to bolster testing for microbial contamination and ensure access to quality, safe and effective medicines. Serfine Achieng’ Ouma gives you an inside view of this lab ahead of its official launch on Wednesday.
