Article Synopsis
- The article analyzes how primary health care centers (PHCCs) are distributed across the 30 Local Government Areas (LGAs) in Osun State, Nigeria, highlighting issues of inequality and inadequacy.
- It finds that while PHCCs are nearly evenly spread among the three senatorial districts, significant disparities exist at the LGA level, particularly regarding population ratios for each center.
- The study emphasizes the need for government intervention to improve PHCC distribution in order to meet Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 and manage public health challenges like the COVID-19 pandemic.
