[kictanet] Alexa, I want to talk to a doctor

[David Indeje]

Listers,

When COVID-19 hit Kenya two years ago ( time moves fast), there was a lot
of talk around surveillance, intrusion into ones privacy.

KICTANet was not left behind together with partners, Article 19 and Policy,

On the bright side, Kenya begun to embrace telemedicine, a novel idea.
Indeed, an exponential rise with how we are engaging with digital health
services via smartphones ( now competing with over the counter concept).

In the US, users can call a Dr via voice courtesy of Amazon Alexa.

Is it time we embraced telehealth visits in Kenya?
