 Ogun Pledges Continued HIV/AIDS Treatment Despite US Funding Suspension


The Ogun State Government has assured residents that HIV/AIDS treatment and care will continue uninterrupted, despite the United States’ 90-day suspension of funding for public health programs, including those under USAID.


Commissioner for Health, Dr. Tomi Coker, in a statement on Tuesday, emphasized that the state had put proactive measures in place to ensure continuous healthcare services, with both the federal and state governments committed to preventing service disruptions.


She noted that HIV test kits remain available in hospitals and primary healthcare centers, and treatment facilities will stay open across all 43 ART sites to support drug pick-ups and initiate antiretroviral therapy for new patients.


Additionally, Early Infant Diagnosis (EID) tests will continue at two m-PIMA laboratories in Oba Ademola Maternity Hospital and General Hospital, Owode, while viral load testing logistics remain in place.


To maintain service delivery, mentor mothers will work alongside government healthcare workers, and the Ministry of Health will oversee coordination efforts at ART sites.


Dr. Coker urged healthcare providers to integrate HIV treatment into the state’s general health services and reassured residents of continued government support.


As of November 2024, 30,350 people were receiving HIV/AIDS treatment in Ogun State, with children accounting for 2% of the cases.
