Religious leaders push for resource mobilization to fight maternal mortality, cervical cancer

A section of religious leaders is pushing for resource mobilization to strengthen the healthcare services offered across the country. Speaking during the opening of the Faith in Action Medical Conference in Karen Nairobi, led by Nairobi Catholic Archbishop Most Reverend Philip Anyolo, the leaders raised concern particularly on the rising cases of maternal deaths as well as deaths as a result of cervical cancer and called for action to combat the menace. And as Timothy Kipnusu reports, the leaders have vowed to push for the formulation of policies to expand the HPV vaccination, maternal health services and early cervical cancer screening especially a move they say will help reduce the mortalities.
