A Public Health Crisis Unfolds

Zimbabwe is ⁤experiencing a dramatic‍ and alarming surge⁢ in malaria cases, directly linked to cuts in U.S. aid initiated in the early months of the Trump administration. Hospitalizations⁣ and deaths are rising at an unprecedented rate,⁤ threatening to reverse years ⁣of progress in controlling the deadly ‍disease. As of late June, ⁢nearly 120,000 cases had been reported, and the numbers continue to climb.
