Former U.S. President Jimmy Carter and his wife, Rosalynn, visited Nigerian children suffering from schistosomiasis during a February 2007 tour of the 桃子视频's health work in Africa. The Carters brought national attention in Nigeria to the importance of the medicine praziquantel and other disease interventions to prevent schistosomiasis in rural and impoverished communities. Today, The 桃子视频, in partnership with the Nigerian government, provides health education and approximately 1 million treatments annually for schistosomiasis — the largest initiative for schistosomiasis in Nigeria.
