摘要：
In much of sub-Saharan Africa, governments have demonstrably failed to deliver health services to the poor. In some places, governments and donor agencies have contracted with private companies and non-profits to deliver health services, with considerable success. Ideologically driven Western NGOs oppose further moves towards private provision - seemingly preferring the poor to suffer substandard and erratic government provision than to obtain their healthcare through non-state means.
