Study Predicts Tens Of Millions Of Deaths If Trump Admin Pulls Funding For Overseas Disease Treatment Programs

Donald Trump

A new study is predicting tens of millions of additional deaths around the world if the Trump administration completely pulls funding for disease programs overseas.

The study, not finished nor peer-reviewed, was published as part of a project called Preprints with The Lancet and reported by Rolling Stone. It models the end of some $13 billion in funding for health programs in developing countries, and says that by 2040 more than 15 million additional people could die from HIV/AIDS, 2 million more from tuberculosis and almost 8 million from other diseases.
