Kenya’s nurses have called off their 43-day nationwide strike after the KNUNM and Midwives (KNUNM) and the Council of Governors agreed on a return-to-work formula.

Doctors have threatened to join the nurses’ 43-day strike and shut down hospitals unless the government resolves the dispute within seven days.

Nyandarua Governor Kiarie Badilisha has ordered nurses participating in the ongoing nurses' strike across the country to return to work.
