ABC News · Trump administration to end funding for child vaccines in poorest nationsBy ABC News

The Trump administration intends to terminate the United States’ financial support for #Gavi,
the organization that has helped purchase critical #vaccines for children in developing countries, saving millions of lives over the past quarter century,
and to significantly scale back support for efforts to combat #malaria, one of the biggest killers globally.
The administration has decided to continue some key grants for medications to treat H.I.V. and tuberculosis, and food aid to countries facing civil wars and natural disasters.
Those decisions are included in a 281-page spreadsheet that the United States Agency for International Development sent to Congress Monday night, listing the foreign aid projects it plans to continue and to terminate.

Hi everyone, Amy here with an update on the malaria podcast! 🎙️ We originally planned to release the three-part series this month, but it's been quite a journey.

From the article: "The Washington-based Malaria No More says new modeling shows that just a year of disruption in the malaria-control supply chain would lead to nearly 15 million additional cases and 107,000 additional deaths globally. It has urged the Trump administration to “restart these life-saving programs before outbreaks get out of hand.”"
