NBC NEWS reported this week that President Donald Trump’s administration is intended to remove disease control and preventive centers. A department focused on preventing HIV The Ministry of Health and Welfare is given such responsibility. One source told NBC News. Reduce up to $ 700 million in the HIV department of the CDC..
As a person who was diagnosed with HIV and AIDS in 2006, I am afraid to come next.
As a person HIV and AIDS diagnosis In 2006, I am afraid to come next. How far will it end or end? When I was diagnosed, I was prescribed the anti retro virus and fell to an irresistible level in a few months. Since then, the virus has not been detected and is now healthy and thriving. I came a long way from the opportunity infection that was constantly dealing with at the time of diagnosis.
Then, I barely entered insurance and was terrified that I would never recover. In a few months, the insurance company withdrew its health insurance policy. How did you pay for the expensive drugs I need to survive?
I learned about it soon Ryan White Comprehenve AIDS Resources Emergency (Care). HIV primary care, treatment and support services are provided to low -income people with HIV. This law provides a safety net, including my HIV prescription, and takes about $ 4,000 a month. This is a stabilization for my physical and mental health.
People with HIVs are very hard to suppress the virus because they cannot detect the virus if they cannot suppress the virus. In other words, sex cannot be delivered to others through sex. In short, treatment is everything and treatment is prevention.
If we know that we can’t expose our partners to HIV, we will confirm and liberate others that they are not threatened. It allows us to have a safe relationship with others and create a baby.
The Trump administration has already tried to eliminate USAID and HAMPER PEPFAR (emergency plan for AIDS relief). Since its founding in 2003, more than 26 million people have saved life in 55 countries.. The CDC can now remove funds to prevent HIV or integrate it into the Ryan White program of HHS. Others in my community are nervous about the future of HIV treatment and the future of HIV prevention.
Treatment is everything and treatment is prevention.
Non -profit organizations based on state and local health departments and community -based non -profit organizations depend on the HIV departments of CDC, HIV education, and preparation for funding or public health efforts for prevention before exposure. Removing funds for this can potentially create new cases. Preps can be used correctly to prevent someone from acquiring HIV during an intimate meeting.
HIV prevention services can be made by simting the Ryan White HIV/AIDS program that provides HIV treatment, allowing you to pay excessively. The resources that provide services to 1.2 million people with HIVs in the United States are already thinner. Resources may be insufficient in deep south, especially rural and urban areas.
At the same time, the Republican Republican Party seems to be bent in slashing Medicaid.
Many low -income or disabled people with HIV rely on Medicaid for health care.
I am more concerned about the release of a safety net that wraps up not only those who live in HIV but also people with chronic health. Someday everything seems to be threatened.
The confusion of administrative orders for Trump’s DEI has a special danger to members of people like me, black and LGBTQ community. Many HIV prevention and treatment programs focus on LGBTQ people (sometimes transformers), blacks and women. Treatment and prevention programs may not match Trump’s anti -day agenda.
Until this week, there were not many stories about preparing people who live with HIV to stop the potential service from leaders of the HIV training community. In their defense, they had no fertilization beads to predict this and were not guided by federal funding agencies. Nevertheless, if you do not plan or consider the accident, it will not help customers or patients sleep better at night.
We can see the results of reducing service or no funds in pepfar. In Africa, millions of lives were affected and medication and treatment began.
When should we start distributing drugs or treatments in the United States? I probably could last for two months, but what is it? It is great to be unable to detect and healthy. We are living a long time now and we are old.
Too many people fought hard to get science and secure money where there are science.
Although we hope to minimize the reorganization of CDC and Ryan White, we know that hope is not a strategy. Too many people fought hard to get science and secure money where there are science.
Last year I traveled to the southwest corner of France and found that many road signs were upside down. I was told that farmers did so in order to protest the government’s opposing government policies.
It seems to be time to reverse and counterattack something in this country. We cannot make Trump again making HIV again a deadly disease.
