Topic: WHO statement on potential global threat to people living with HIV
The WHO is deeply concerned about the impact of the immediate funding pause on HIV programs in low- and middle-income countries. These programs provide life-saving antiretroviral therapy to over 30 million people, with 39.9 million living with HIV globally by the end of 2023.
The funding pause for PEPFAR (The United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief ), a key global HIV initiative for over 20 years, threatens the continuity of treatment for millions who rely on it.
