The scrapping of USAID by Donald Trump and aid reduction from other countries could cause a deadly resurgence of malaria, warns an expert report. Malaria, primarily affecting children and pregnant women in Africa, causes nearly 600,000 deaths annually and cases are on the rise. Despite urgent need for increased funding, Western countries are cutting aid. The Global Fund to Fight Aids, Tuberculosis and Malaria, which provides 59% of funding to combat malaria, could see a potential increase of nearly a million deaths by the decade’s end due to these cuts.
