US Cuts HIV Funding

The United States has announced that it will be cutting off funding for South Africa's HIV programmes through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR).

This decision has sparked concern and is likely the reason for the increase in searches for 'HIV' in South Africa.

Reaction to the Cuts

The FW de Klerk Foundation has urged the US to reconsider the funding cuts, highlighting the importance of continued support for HIV programmes in South Africa.
