Dr Waqo Ejersa

Dr Waqo Ejersa is the Chief Executive Officer of the Kenya Medical Supplies Authority (KEMSA). In a recent news article, he addressed the issue of expired antiretroviral (ARV) medicines being dispensed in public hospitals, asserting that KEMSA does not distribute health products with a shelf life of less than six months. He emphasized that the responsibility for any expired drugs found in facilities lies with those institutions and counties after the products leave KEMSA's stores, highlighting the need for accountability among healthcare providers.
