Tackling TB with smartphones
In rural areas of Eswatini, MSF teams have been working with community-based models of care for several years to provide TB patients with better treatment support.
In 2020, we piloted a new technology approach called Video Observed Therapy (VOT) which uses smartphones to bring care even closer to patients and reduce out-of-pocket expenses. In this video we hear from Nqobile, who has been using VOT since she was diagnosed with multi-drug resistant tuberculosis in 2022.
