Among them:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"css-1le37cb ez3869y0\">\n<li class=\"css-1i3ul0c eoqvrfo0\">\n<p class=\"css-1il0jfh evys1bk0\">up to 18 million additional cases of malaria per year, and as many as 166,000 additional deaths;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"css-1i3ul0c eoqvrfo0\">\n<p class=\"css-1il0jfh evys1bk0\">200,000 children paralyzed with polio annually, and hundreds of millions of infections;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"css-1i3ul0c eoqvrfo0\">\n<p class=\"css-1il0jfh evys1bk0\">one million children not treated for severe acute malnutrition, which is often fatal, each year;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"css-1i3ul0c eoqvrfo0\">\n<p class=\"css-1il0jfh evys1bk0\">more than 28,000 new cases of such infectious diseases as Ebola and Marburg every year.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Those stark projections were laid out in a series of memos by Nicholas Enrich, acting assistant administrator for global health at U.S.A.I.D., which were obtained by The New York Times. Mr. Enrich was placed on administrative leave on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In one memo, he placed the blame for these potential health crises on \u201cpolitical leadership at U.S.A.I.D., the Department of State, and D.O.G.E., who have created and continue to create intentional and\/or unintentional obstacles that have wholly prevented implementation\u201d of aid programs. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Those leaders have blocked payment systems, created new and ineffective processes for payments, and constantly shifted guidance regarding which activities qualify as \u201clifesaving,\u201d Mr. Enrich wrote. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Another memo describes the slashing of the agency\u2019s global health work force from 783 on Jan. 20 to fewer than 70 on Sunday.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-1\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In an interview, Mr. Enrich said he released the memos on Sunday afternoon, after an email arrived placing him on leave, to set the record straight on the gutting of U.S.A.I.D. staff and the termination of thousands of lifesaving grants. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">By detailing the series of events behind the scenes, he hoped \u201cit\u2019ll be clear that we were never actually given the opportunity to implement lifesaving humanitarian assistance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Officials at the State Department did not immediately respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">In January, the Trump administration froze funds intended for foreign aid. On Jan. 28, Secretary of State Marco Rubio issued a temporary waiver for lifesaving humanitarian assistance. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But very little money has actually been delivered, essentially shuttering aid programs worldwide and forcing hundreds of organizations to furlough or fire workers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Still, employees in U.S.A.I.D.\u2019s Bureau for Global Health tried to remain optimistic and \u201cto do everything we can\u201d to implement the waivers, Mr. Enrich said. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-2\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">But on Wednesday the Trump administration abruptly terminated some 5,800 projects financed by U.S.A.I.D., including many that had received waivers. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt was finally clear that we were not going to be implementing under that waiver,\u201d Mr. Enrich said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cI needed for myself and all the staff who had been pouring their hearts into doing this \u2014 we needed records to show what had happened,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Mr. Enrich said he had hoped to compile one more memo, showing the ways in which he and others had conveyed the risks of disrupting crucial programs to Mark Lloyd and Tim Meisburger, political appointees at the agency. But they repeatedly asked for more details to justify the programs, he said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cIt is clear the Trump administration is well aware that it is violating court orders and not delivering lifesaving aid it claimed to be funding under a waiver,\u201d said Matthew Kavanagh, director of the Georgetown University Center for Global Health Policy and Politics.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-3\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cUnless reversed, this will cost millions of lives, by the government\u2019s own accounting,\u201d Dr. Kavanagh added. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">According to Mr. Enrich\u2019s memo, other devastating impacts could include uncontrolled outbreaks of mpox and bird flu, including as many 105 million cases in the United States alone, rising maternal and children\u2019s mortality in 48 countries, and a 30 percent increase in drug-resistant tuberculosis.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Disruption to TB programs overseas will result in more patients arriving in the United States, Mr. Enrich\u2019s memo warned.<em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\"> <\/em>Treating one patient with multidrug-resistant TB costs more than $154,000 in the United States.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">(The Trump administration is said to be readying plans to turn back migrants on the grounds that they might bring TB into the country.)<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The memos also note the disruption to the effort to contain Ebola in Uganda. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">A single Ebola patient in New York in 2014 cost the city\u2019s Health Department $4.3 million in response measures. The outbreak in Uganda appeared to be ebbing, but a <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/02\/28\/health\/ebola-elon-musk-doge.html\" title=\"\">4-year-old boy died<\/a> earlier in the week, indicating that the virus was still circulating.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"companionColumn-4\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The consequences may extend beyond human health, affecting U.S. businesses \u2014 including agriculture \u2014 and families by increasing health care costs, disrupting international trade and straining domestic resources. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">Programs for maternal and child health and for nutrition can stabilize the economy and political climate in other countries, the memo notes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">\u201cArticle 1 of the Constitution gives Congress the power to create or remove agencies and authorize spending, not the president,\u201d Dr. Kavanagh said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">By dismantling U.S.A.I.D. and terminating its programs, the Trump administration is not only \u201crisking death for millions of the most marginalized around the world, but they are also triggering a constitutional crisis in the service of cruelty,\u201d Dr. Kavanagh added.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<aside class=\"css-ew4tgv\" aria-label=\"companion column\"\/><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\r\n<!-- ItShrt World News -->\r\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\r\n     style=\"display:block\"\r\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6606220950177433\"\r\n     data-ad-slot=\"1882483372\"\r\n     data-ad-format=\"auto\"\r\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\r\n<script>\r\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\r\n<\/script>\r\n<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2025\/03\/02\/health\/usaid-cuts-deaths-infections.html\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Trump administration\u2019s decision to withdraw foreign aid and dismantle the U.S. Agency for International Development is likely to cause<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":10036,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[619,407,97,1463,551,973,983,111,188],"class_list":["post-10035","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-health-2","tag-avian-influenza","tag-foreign-aid","tag-humanitarian-aid","tag-malaria","tag-medicine-and-health","tag-tuberculosis","tag-united-states-agency-for-international-development","tag-united-states-politics-and-government","tag-your-feed-science"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>U.S.A.I.D.
