He acknowledged the impact of U.S.-funded programs, including PEPFAR, USAID, and CDC, particularly in combating HIV/AIDS, TB, and malaria. He reaffirmed Kenya's commitment to transparency, accountability, and integrity in all joint health initiatives. The U.S. expressed readiness to align its support with Kenya's health strategies to enhance the country's health systems. The CS was joined by Director General for Health Dr. Patrick Amoth, Director of Family Health Dr. Bashir Isaak, Dr. Bashir Issak, Head Directorate of Family Health and Head of NASCOP Dr. Andrew Mulwa.
