Summary
The Trump administration has terminated over 300 National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded research projects, including 65 focused on HIV prevention and care, slashing $35 million in funding.
Scientists warn this move will reverse decades of progress in combating the epidemic, especially among high-risk groups like Black men and trans women. Termination letters cite opposition to “DEI” initiatives.
Researchers say the cuts threaten patient care, eliminate jobs, and jeopardize future studies.
The NIH claims it is refocusing on “evidence-based science,” but experts argue the decision erases key public health efforts and communities.
Jesus fucking christ… literally Reagan era. What do they mean “evidence based science”? But they banned it cause of “DEI”? I guess merely the association of HIV with queer people and people of color is enough to classify it as “DEI”? So like. Black people and queer people having effective medical treatments is “DEI”?The horror show continues. Persecution of minorities is now standard practice in America.
He probably legitimately believes white males have a natural immunity to HIV, so only minorities & women will be harmed by this.
