Following Trump's executive order cutting funding for USAID, HIV/AIDS programs face significant setbacks. The WHO warns that this could lead to increased illness and death among those living with HIV. In response, Elton John and Brandi Carlile have launched a campaign to counter these cuts through their foundations. They emphasize the urgency of maintaining HIV care and prevention efforts globally. The Elton John AIDS Foundation, which has raised over $500 million since 1992, is working to fill funding gaps caused by these cuts. Additionally, the foundation has faced a ban in Russia, hindering its ability to provide essential services.
