Reports Describe Strain on HIV Services in Zambia After U.S. Funding Cuts
HIV treatment and prevention programs in parts of Zambia have weakened following cuts to U.S. assistance, threatening progress that had saved hundreds of thousands of lives. Reported disruptions to these services may put people at greater risk of infection and makes it harder for those living with HIV to access the medications they need. This matters because it shows how quickly gains in fighting a deadly disease can disappear when funding drops.
