UK proposes 15% cut to Global Fund, sparking concerns over global health impacts.
The UK has proposed a 15% cut to its Global Fund contribution, reducing its aid pledge to 0.3% of GDP amid a shift toward higher defense spending.
While the government says the cut amounts to only a 5% decrease in dollar terms and could still save millions of lives, health advocates warn the move may force African nations to scale back vital services, risking increased infections and deaths.
Experts highlight the Global Fund’s critical role in providing HIV, TB, and malaria treatments, with a 20% overall funding drop potentially causing 330,000 additional malaria deaths by 2040.
Critics urge the UK to increase its pledge, suggesting savings from asylum accommodations could help, stressing that donor commitments are essential to maintaining global health security and progress against infectious diseases.
