Funder: WHO
Brief summary: The COVID-19 pandemic affected all aspects of life and health care service delivery. AAs the numbers of those infected increased, there was a concomitant increase in hospital visits and admissions. In response to the pandemic, resources were mobilized to improve response to the pandemic. Governments also implemented control measures which included various degrees of restrictions ranging from lockdowns to partial movement restrictions in a bid to reduce transmission. All these affected health services including sexual and reproductive health (SRH) service demand and service delivery. The main aim of this research project is to assess the impact of COVID-19 on the capacity of the primary health systems to provide family planning and contraceptive services in Nigeria.
Role: Co-investigator
Collaborators: Prof T. M. Akande (University of Ilorin), Dr. A. Adeniran (University of Ilorin), Dr. O. Fawole (University of Ilorin)
