Some background on why the funds raised by NCAC are crucial now more than ever:
- The current Administration has eliminated funding for dozens of HIV-related research grants
- The U.S. has cut USAID funding that supports work managing the HIV epidemic overseas
- These cuts threaten patient care and end hopes of eliminating HIV in the U.S. and globally
- Eliminating funding disproportionately affects LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC folks
Stats cited in recent CNN coverage:
-- Since 1981, HIV has led to the deaths of more than 700,000 people in the US.
-- More than 1.2 million Americans now live with HIV, according to federal statistics.
-- About 13% of people who have HIV don’t know they have it — one driver of the virus’ continuing spread.
