Video: SHOPS Plus Tuberculosis Program in Nigeria

In 2019, over 400,000 Nigerians had TB but only a quarter of them were diagnosed and treated. The private health sector has been an underused resource for TB detection in Nigeria because the TB program has been public sector focused. The Sustaining Health Outcomes through the Private Sector (SHOPS) Plus TB program, funded by USAID, has been working with the Nigerian government and private providers on a public private partnership that has successfully changed this dynamic and increased access to TB care through the private sector.
