U.S. to End Vaccine Funds for Poor Countries

The Trump administration intends to terminate the United States’ financial support for Gavi, the organization that has helped purchase critical vaccines for children in developing countries, saving millions of lives over the past quarter century, and to significantly scale back support for efforts to combat malaria, one of the biggest killers globally.

The administration has decided to continue some key grants for medications to treat H.I.V. and tuberculosis, and food aid to countries facing civil wars and natural disasters.

Those decisions are included in a 281-page spreadsheet that the United States Agency for International Development sent to Congress Monday night, listing the foreign aid projects it plans to continue and to terminate. The New York Times obtained a copy of the spreadsheet and other documents describing the plans.

The documents provide a sweeping overview of the extraordinary scale of the administration’s retreat from a half-century-long effort to present the United States to the developing world as a compassionate ally and to lead the fight against infectious diseases that kill millions of people annually.

I thought when it came to stuff like this people working for the admin would resign in protest. This and so many other things. The kind of abject inhumanity, affecting millions, that you have to go out of your way to pursue. The kind of thing trump does by fiat because he knows how unpopular it would be if members of Congress had to vote on it. Which they should.

Why should we be poisoning other countries?

 

[berg80]

There's being indifferent about whether third world countries have reason to thank us for helping them, and then there's affirmatively taking actions that will end up killing more human beings.

 

[TNHarley]

Sounds good to me!
We vaccinate the kids. We clothe the kids. We feed and water the kids. Then, in a few years, we will take care of their 15 fucking children they cant take care of.

Until our spending is under control … let’s let them buy their own 15th COVID booster.

If our border is under control, it’s not an issue.

"Hey honey, yeah i know we can barely survive ourselves, so lets have ten children. I mean, doesnt that seem like the responsible thing to do? Who cares if they will starve, stay dehydrated, cold, sick and stupid?"

Yes. Great idea. Have them foster their own ability to research and fund vaccines. We are not the global nanny.

America first.

I support the program but more importantly, I support paying for it first.

How about this one:

Stopping communicable diseases in other countries BEFORE they arrive on your shores, is saving American lives at home, not to mention the costs of dealing with these outbreaks when they happen.

In the real world, it's called "enlightened self interest", or "Doing well, while doing good". It's no different than dealing with terrorists in their home countries rather than after they blow up your buildings.

Who makes them poor? Not us, their own governments. Bitch to them.

The Trump administration intends to terminate the United States’ financial support for Gavi, the organization that has helped purchase critical vaccines for children in developing countries,

What is a "developing country? How long before they are developed? Most developing countries are older than we are. Who gave us vaccines when we were developing?

saving millions of lives over the past quarter century,

So now you want to save lives. Millions of lives in countries so poor, they can't even feed themselves. Then who feeds them? Then you'd want to send over billions in food? An odd position for a person who otherwise champions KILLING people (by abortion). You want to abort Americans but save Africans. Got it.

and to significantly scale back support for efforts to combat malaria, one of the biggest killers globally.

No, one of the biggest killers globally is the democrats and their abortion centers and chinese fentanyl.

 

[whitehall]

Poor countries? Developing countries? Who are they? Why can't the U.N. chip in to take care of these poor folks?

Sounds like a fantastic idea for a country deeply in debt.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

It is an excellent idea. It's not like we have money to spare. Pay off the debt, get spending under control. Replace our crumbling infrastructure first.
