At #WHA78 our colleague @kinzuleman.bsky.social of the DOPASI Foundation in #Pakistan spoke with @devex.com about the “hunger games” created by #ODA funding cuts. She explains here 👇the experience of a woman now struggling to stay the course of her treatment for #TB 💔 #FundingCutsCostLives #EndTB

Did you see the below video from @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social re the impact of U.S. #FundingCuts on the fight to #EndTB? Now hear from Chamreun from Cambodia who explains how efforts to find people with TB and get them the care they need has halted.

A global #TB response once led by civil society is now collapsing. But this fight is far from over.

Please do not be silent. Stand with us and with @tbfighters.org and demand action. ⬇️

The human cost of funding cuts will be too high. So many lives are on the line!
March 13, 2025 at 2:28 PM
People with #TB are being abandoned. The community workers who once monitored them are no longer there. Treatment is being interrupted, and this will increase drug resistance.

The Hidden Cost of Funding Cuts
❌ Community health workers - fired
❌ Clinics - shut down
❌ TB patients - left without testing and treatment

The US withdrawal has created gaps that will cost countless lives.

💔 Testing & treatment exist, but the people who deliver these services are being dismissed and left unemployed.
🛑 Without clinicians and essential care workers, millions will be left without testing and treatment.

These figures reflecting the impact of USAID funding freeze have significantly worsened with the recent mass termination of projects. 📈 The impact on #TB response is catastrophic!
March 13, 2025 at 2:28 PM
📢 The impact is real and the voices are undeniable.

We surveyed 180 people from the field and their message is clear - people with TB are being abandoned.

US funding cuts are devastating the global #tuberculosis response.

TB is airborne and knows no borders. Disruption of US-funded projects would fuel the global spread of TB and its resistant forms.

TB anywhere is TB everywhere!

Elimination of TB programs are not policy decisions; they are an injustice that is putting millions of lives at risk.

The US has led TB research & funding – until now. Halting funds abruptly abandons vulnerable communities and threatens decades of progress. We must not let this happen. #FundTBNow #FundingCutsCostLives

Each day of funding cuts means 11,000 people with TB may not complete their treatment. Stopping TB programs isn't just bad policy – it’s a public health catastrophe. Countless lives are at stake! #FundTBNow #FundingCutsCostLives

Colleagues from #EndTB communities in Kenya are speaking up about the impact of cutting funding for #TB programs.

Imagine being in a clinical trial for life-saving TB treatment – then it stops overnight due to politics. Unethical. Deadly. Preventable. America must not choose this. #FundingCutsCostLives #FundTBNow
February 27, 2025 at 8:58 PM
1.3 million people die from TB every year. Cutting investments now means more outbreaks, suffering, and preventable deaths. Countries and donors must step up NOW! #KeepTheLightsOn #FundTBNow

TB is airborne and knows no borders. Disruption of US-funded projects would fuel the global spread of TB and its resistant forms. The Kansas outbreak is a warning – TB anywhere is TB everywhere! #GlobalHealthSecurity #FundTBNow

Funding cuts on TB projects = halted clinical trials, disrupted testing, treatment and prevention services, and lost lives. This is unethical & deadly! The world cannot afford to turn its back on TB. #FundTBNow #EndTB
February 27, 2025 at 8:26 PM
The halt in TB funding puts millions of lives at risk – it jeopardizes clinical trials, treatment programs & global health security. The United States administration must take immediate action to restore TB funding. #FundingCutsCostLives #EndTB
