Editorial: Laggard rich countries risk slowing the fight against AIDS, malaria and TB
For many people, the money that flows from the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria quite literally makes the difference between life and death. The fund is estimated to have saved 50 million lives in low- and middle-income countries in the two decades since it was established by the leaders of the international community, researchers and philanthropic funders. A conference held last month to replenish the fund received US$14.
Despite these challenges, the Global Fund continued its work. In 2021, it provided more than 23 million people with antiretroviral therapy, treated over 5 million people for TB and distributed some 133 million insecticide-treated mosquito bed nets to protect against malaria.A pandemic, climate change and escalating global instability all offer a perfect opportunity for infectious diseases to resurge.
In the last funding round, the United Kingdom pledged $1.7 billion and Italy $178 million. If both countries were to commit these same amounts — and ideally more, to match the increased commitments made by others — that could potentially unlock more from the United States, bringing the fund considerably closer to its target.
