1,700 H.I.V. Treatment Sites Closed After Trump Aid Cuts, a Study Finds

Recent research reveals that US-backed HIV treatment accessibility declined significantly following aid cuts. A study indicates that 1,700 HIV treatment sites were closed as a result of these funding reductions. The findings highlight that children and high-risk adult populations were particularly affected by these closures. Consequently, fewer children received essential HIV treatment due to the loss of US support, demonstrating a direct impact on vulnerable groups who rely on these medical services for survival.
