Doctors have issued a seven-day strike notice beginning next week on Monday.
The Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Union (KMPDU) on Monday staged a peaceful demonstration in Nairobi, protesting among other things the shooting of their Secretary General Davji Atellah by police during a similar demonstration in Nairobi last week.
The medics were pushing for the posting of medical interns by the government on Thursday when Atellah was struck by a teargas canister.
