Six months since U.S. officials slashed USAID funding for global aid and development, the toll is becoming evident on intimate and international scales. 

Malnourished families increasingly have nowhere to turn in places that depended heavily on U.S. aid like Sudan and Nepal. Studies project cuts could lead to 163,500 additional child deaths annually, . 

In Nepal, the sudden halt of food shipments has already led to deaths and threatens to undo years of work addressing childhood wasting and stunting.

In war-torn Sudan, the cuts have triggered a cascade of preventable deaths from bacterial infections, cholera, and starvation as soup kitchens close and clinics’ stockrooms grow bare, . 
  • One Sudanese mother described trying to soothe her starving children: “Sometimes I boiled water on the fire and told them I am cooking and just to wait.”

  • Meanwhile, hundreds of thousands of doses of lifesaving peanut paste supplements paid for by the U.S. government are sitting in warehouses.
The future of the Sustainable Development Goals hangs in the balance as global leaders convene in Seville today for the UN’s once-in-a-decade International Conference on Financing for Development, —with talks that may reconfigure how countries finance efforts to combat hunger, poverty, and health disparities.
  • With aid shrinking and debt burdens rising, achieving the 17 SDGs by 2030 is increasingly unlikely, . 
GLOBAL HEALTH VOICES DATA POINT

11.8 million
—ĔĔĔĔĔĔ
People in the U.S. estimated to lose health coverage by 2034 under the Senate version of the Trump administration’s budget bill, currently under debate. The Latest One-Liners   A WHO-appointed expert panel’s , released Friday, failed to reach a conclusive answer; while most scientific data supports a zoonotic spillover, the panel said, it could not rule out a lab leak because China has withheld data needed to fully evaluate all hypotheses. 
 
A measles outbreak has been reported in a Ƭ֦Ƶ Mexico jail, after five detainees tested positive for the virus; the state has now reported 86 cases in eight counties.

U.S. Black and Hispanic patients seeking medical care for issues stemming from opioid use are “significantly less likely” to receive buprenorphine or naltrexone, that suggests that while access to such medications has improved overall, racial disparities in treatment persist.

Across Cambodia, thousands of people are trapped in “hellish” jail-like compounds, forced to facilitate online scams for crime syndicates, while the Cambodian government is “deliberately ignoring” human trafficking, torture, and other abuses, . 

Background: Scam centers have proliferated across Southeast Asia in the last five years. Those running the schemes are often people lured through false job advertisements, then forced to work under threat of violence. 

Details: 
  • In Cambodia alone, ~100,000 people—including children—have been trafficked into scam compounds. The report identified at least 53 scam centers.

  • In some cases, there has been “coordination and possibly collusion” between Chinese compound bosses and Cambodian authorities.
GLOBAL HEALTH VOICES DRUG TRAFFICKING Captagon’s Continued Grip in Syria 
After the fall of Bashar Al-Assad in Syria, transitional leaders vowed to dismantle the government’s longstanding involvement in the production and trafficking of Captagon—an illicit synthetic drug similar to methamphetamine that reportedly generated billions for the Assad regime. 

Despite the crackdown, the country remains a hub for Captagon production and distribution as traffickers shift tactics, .

The Quote: “These groups have been managing Captagon for a long time, and production is not going to stop in a matter of days or weeks,” said UNODC’s research and analysis chief, Angela Me.

Ƭ֦Ƶ is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. McGill honours, recognizes, and respects these nations as the traditional stewards of the lands and waters on which peoples of the world now gather. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous Peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
