John Wills Njoroge, Nairobi Kenya.

n the course of my professional duties, I encountered
a group of male patients who had been admitted to a
Ihealthcare facility for various ailments. Despite being

under medical care, they exhibited little improvement, and
it was evident that their female counterparts were healing
more quickly and being discharged at a higher rate. Acting
on the directives of both my former supervisor and a leading
healthcare practitioner, I set out to assess the situation

and identify the underlying factors that contributed to the
observed gender disparity.
