@pbsnews: A new report details the impact of cuts to USAID and, specifically, to a program credited with saving more than 26 million lives. In 2003, then-President George W. Bush established PEPFAR — the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. The study from the HIV/AIDS non-profit amfAR found that more than 1,700 treatment sites have closed in the wake of funding cuts to the program and the larger dismantling of USAID. William Brangham discussed more with Dr. Atul Gawande, who served as assistant administrator of USAID during the Biden administration. #pbsnewshour #newshour #pbsnews #news #trumpadministration #donaldtrump #trump #hiv #aids #worldhealth #publichealth #usaid

HIV/AIDS affects men, women, children, and anyone in between. People need to understand it is not only gay men affected, though gay men also deserve both HIV treatment and preventive treatment.

Fauci’s contribution to these medical advancements are more American First than anything Trump has done in his two terms.

What kind of a human being would want to cut healthcare for anyone? Only a really bad person would ever do such a thing.

HelloBiafra :
Well the funny thing is , supporters of the destruction of USAID say that that money should be spent on Americans, which hits a brick wall of logic. This is said often by voters who share a core belief that the government shouldn't be helping anybody , nobody should get anything " for free," and you need to find your bootstraps. So where exactly is all this money supposed to be spent? More ribeye and lobster for Hegseth and friends or just increase the ICE budget to a trillion a year? If it's going anywhere it's going into the Immortalization fund for Trump's vanity projects. They have zero problem with that.

Reducing international funding doesn’t prohibit other countries from providing their own resources. Why is the expectation that the American taxpayer is liable to pay for everything?
