The Global Alliance of Vaccines and Immunisation (GAVI) has extended its support to Kenya by two years to 2029, helping avert a looming crisis in primary healthcare.
Health PS Harry Kimutai disclosed GAVI’s extension on Wednesday, a move aimed at ensuring that the country, through the Kenya BioVax Institute, can start formulating vaccines locally.
