Donald Trump’s transition to reduce most of the US financing to foreign humanitarian aid can lead to more than 14 million additional deaths by 2030, reports A study published in Lancet Medical magazine on Monday.
The third part of those who risk the premature death are children.
In March, US Secretary of State Mark Rubio said the Presidential Administration has canceled more than 80% of all programs at the US Agency for International Development or USAID.
“For many low and medium-income countries, the shock will be comparable to a global pandemic or major armed conflict,” David Russia said, co-authorized by the Lancet report.
Financing reduces “Risks to stop dramatically – and even change – two decades of healthcare progress among the vulnerable populations,” added Russell, a Global Barcelona Institute researcher.
This week, dozens of world leaders are found in the Spanish city of Seville at a assistance conference under the leadership of the United Nations, the largest in ten years.
Looking back at 133 countries, the researchers’ team estimated that USAID funding has prevented 91 million deaths in developing countries from 2001 to 2021.
They also used modeling to design how the financing decreased by 83% – this figure announced by the US government earlier this year – can affect the mortality rate.
By 2030, reductions can lead to more than 14 million deaths that can be avoided. This number included more than 4.5 million children under the age of five – or about 700,000 deaths a year.
The Trump administration is headed by the billionaire Musk’s cost reduction initiative to reduce the federal labor. He also accused USAID of supporting liberal projects.
The US is definitely the world’s largest supplier of humanitarian aid, operating in more than 60 countries, mainly through contractors.
According to Rubio, there are approximately 1000 other programs that will be “more effective” in the US State Department and in agreement with Congress.
However, the situation on Earth does not improve, according to the UN workers.
Last month, the UN official said the BBC that hundreds of thousands of people were “slowly starving” in Kenyan refugee camps after reducing the US funding reduced food to the lowest levels.
At the Hospital in Kakum, in the northwest of Kenya, BBC has witnessed A child who could barely move and showed signs of malnutrition, including part of her skin, wrinkled and peel.
