About the Episode
More than 20 years ago, the U.S. became the leader in the worldwide fight against HIV/AIDS. The Bush administration initiative Pepfar was the largest health commitment made by a nation to combat a single disease. But Trump's cuts have thrown the initiative into a tailspin. Stephanie Sy discussed the shift in HIV funding with Angeli Achrekar of UNAIDS, which provides services in 55 countries.
