Lang'ata Hospital Laboratory has been closed indefinitely for carrying out fake Covid-19 tests and its bosses were yesterday arrested. The hospital charged people Sh 5,500 for tests but secretly sneaked the people in ambulances to KEMRI for testing.

KEMRI, after the early morning police raid, decided to announce, in the afternoon, that it will no-longer carry out Covid- 19 tests in its Hq and its other centers. (A move that didn't make any sense at all, but in light of the Lang'at Hospital story, that move makes perfect sense.) KEMRI shouldn't charge for Covid-19 testing. So either KEMRI was in on it or Lang'ata Hospital Labs played KEMRI.

Lang'ta Hospital was also found to be using expired reagents in other tests, especially HIV and Syphilis related tests. And most of its drugs and testing reagents were found labeled GoK (meaning they were originally sent to a public hospital). Lang'ta hospital is a private hospital and those drugs and other GoK medical supplies shouldn't be in that facility.

You can never separate an Indian from shortcuts no matter how formal he seems to be. Actually, Indians have proved to be highly effective vectors in spreading the shortcut culture in our institutions. They compromised government supply chains a long time ago when everyone else was asleep. Today, it is almost a miracle to win a supply tender anywhere using documentation alone.

While they conducted the raid, they also discovered that the hospital had stocked government-labelled reagents that are not supposed to be for sale, and that most of the reagents, especially those used in HIV tests and syphilis tests were expired. These are medical supplies that are meant for public hospitals, not private ones like Lang’ata Hospital.
