Nairobi, Kenya -- Kenyan doctors will report to work starting Friday, after they agreed with the government on how they can be paid their salary arrears.

The government and the doctors' union signed a return-to-work agreement Wednesday, a deal that will bring relief to the sick who have been unable to get treatment in public hospitals.

Kenyan health minister Susan Nakhumicha said the doctors should now focus on attending to the sick.
