Kenya is poor in terms of its economics; it is a low income developing country where agriculture sustains 80% of the people; relying on maize as its chief food crop and coffee and tea as the main cash crops. Kenya’s multiparty democracy and strong central government allows healthcare officials and researchers to communicate with them. However, Kenya has trouble providing adequate healthcare for its population. One of the health issues that Kenya must concern itself with is Tuberculosis and this can present itself with other medical conditions as well, such as HIV.
