"...During a 90-day [PEPFAR] stoppage, we
estimate that this would mean 135,987 babies acquiring

Out-of-pocket health expenditure of 10% or more of their household budget is placing 1 in 8 people worldwide at risk of poverty.​

Governments must adequately invest in #HealthForAll and protect people – particularly the most vulnerable among us – from high health spending. ​
