The Kenya Medical Supplies Authority has announced that they will have a temporary closure of its Nairobi Central and Regional warehouses.
In a statement on Tuesday, they noted that this is to allow them to conduct their annual stock-taking.
Kemsa said the closure will be effective from July 3 to July 7.
However, their normal sales and warehouse operations will resume on July 10.
"We wish to notify our esteemed customers and the general public that we shall close our Nairobi Central and Regional warehouses for the annual stock take," the statement read.
They also noted that during this period all receipts and dispatches of medical supplies will be suspended.
Only emergency cases shall be attended to by them.
"During this period, all receipts and dispatches of medical supplies will be suspended," Kemsa said.
KEMSA always takes an annual stock-audit break to allow the authority to take account of its inventory items.
The authority is tasked with procuring, warehousing, and distributing drugs and medical supplies for prescribed public health programs, the national strategic stock reserve, prescribed essential health packages, and national referral hospitals.
