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.

💉 A news release says the spending would help provide new malaria vaccines to 50 million children and human papillomavirus protection to 120 million girls.

The funding would improve storage of children's vaccine doses in remote areas and provide an unspecified number of vaccines for mpox, previously known as monkeypox.

This is a disastrous decision especially in the wake of the USAID situation.

GAVI is an incredible initiative for global public health with great positive results. What a travesty.

What a horrible year so far (and we're only in Month 2) for global development.

The global vaccine organisation Gavi is likely to seek around $11.9 billion from governments and foundations on Thursday to fund immunisation efforts in the world’s poorest countries over five years.
