Bill Gates, Co-founder of Microsoft and promoter of Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, has to promised to channel more money into the improvement of health facilities in the country to promote healthcare rather than spend more on acquisition of vaccines to prevent Covid-19 and other ailments.
Gates is of the opinion that Nigeria’s planned procurement of vaccines with as much as N400 billion would not add much value to its health care system as using its scarce resources to revamp the health sector to prevent avoidable ailments that easily afflict the populace. Responding to questions from top African news channels, Gates also said the proposed sum by Nigeria could be better used to revitalize its weak and underfunded health sector, especially the primary health care centres across the country. “There is no doubt that the impact of putting money into the health system particularly the primary healthcare system will be very high in terms of saving children’s lives and you are absolutely right,”
Gates noted during the interview session. “Nigeria should not divert the very limited money that it has for health into trying to pay a high price for COVID vaccines,” the philanthropist said.
