Shirika la Afya Duniani (WHO) limeonya maambukizi mapya ya HIV zaidi ya milioni 10 na vifo vya Watu milioni 3 vinavyohusiana na UKIMWI vinaweza kushuhudiwa kufuatia kusitishwa kwa msaada wa kigeni wa Marekani unaosaidia upatikanaji wa dawa za kufubaza makali ya virusi vya UKIMWI, ARVs.
Mkurugenzi Mkuu wa WHO, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus WHO amesema hatua ya Marekani kujiondoa kusaidia mapambano ya HIV imeathiri usambazaji wa dawa katika nchi saba za Afrika, zikiwemo Kenya, Lesotho, Sudan Kusini, Burkina Faso, Mali, Nigeria, na Haiti, ambazo zinaweza kuishiwa dawa ndani ya miezi michache ijayo.
Dr. Tedros amesema kusitishwa kwa msaada huo wa Marekani kunaweza kufuta mafanikio ya miaka 20 katika kupambana na HIV huku pia akionya kuwa juhudi za kudhibiti magonjwa mengine kama polio, malaria, na kifua kikuu zimeathirika vibaya na ameiomba Marekani kuhakikisha kuwa inatoa muda wa mpito kwa nchi zilizoathirika ili ziweze kupata vyanzo mbadala vya fedha badala ya kusitisha msaada kwa ghafla
Itakumbukwa Rais wa Marekani, Donald Trump alitangaza mwezi huu kusitisha kutoa fedha za misaada kupitia miradi iliyokuwa chini ya Shirika lake la misaada la USAID, hali iliyoibua taharuki hasa kwa nchi nyingi za Afrika zinazotegemea fedha za ufadhili kushughulika na magonjwa kama Ukimwi.

The World Health Organization's chief says deaths from HIV, malaria and other diseases will surge if the US drastically cuts foreign aid.
WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus told reporters in Switzerland on Monday that his organization is already seeing the impact of reductions in such assistance by the Trump administration.
The US president has moved to slash health spending, including suspending foreign aid provided through the United States Agency for International Development. It will also terminate about 80 percent of USAID projects.
Tedros said disruptions to the supply of medicines is severe and will hit especially hard as Africa struggles with a high number of HIV cases. He said such cuts could lead to 3 million HIV-related deaths, more than triple the number last year.
