The shortage of drugs in Kenya due to stopping American aid.
Nairobi: US President Donald Trump’s recent executive order to prevent the financing of ‘USAd’ has now affected Kenya on a large scale. Many needy people, children and institutions are suffering the biggest brunt in Kenya, dependent on the aid of ‘USAD’. Especially orphans suffering from HIV and tuberculosis are facing the most problems. A two -year -old child suffering from HIV was brought to ‘Pneumbani Children Home’ in Nairobi, Kenya a year ago. He does not have a family. America’s decision has now disrupted its healing.
It is being told that there is no one to take care of this child, due to which he was sent to the orphanage by a health center. He is still alive because of ‘Pneumbani Children’s Home’. But the political decisions made thousands of kilometers away can end his small life. ‘Pneumbani’ provides him and about 100 other children ‘antiretroviral’ drugs, which is getting assistance from the U.S. Azance for International Development (USAD) through the Kenyan government. Trump’s recent executive order to prevent the financing of ‘USAd’ means that those life -saving ‘antiretroviral’ drugs of ‘pneumbani’ may soon end, which prevents the HIV virus from growing in the body.
Thousands of people got jobs, human programs also stopped around the world
This order of Trump states to review almost all American foreign aid for 90 days and his administration has taken a step to shut down the ‘USAD’. Trump’s decision has started showing effects, thousands of people have gone around the world and human programs have been disrupted worldwide. This is a life-death situation for children living in ‘Pneumbani Children Home’. While playing with other children, there is neither any wrinkle nor concern about his uncertain future while playing with other children, although it is definitely worried about it. Small tombs located at one end of the orphanage complex make a disappointing reminiscent of what the future of children will be without USAd.

Sister Tres Palkudi, who has been taking care of children here for the last 28 years, is well aware of this entire scenario. He said, “When we started taking care of these children, it did not seem that he had life.” Many children died one after the other. It was very painful and I do not want this to happen again. ”In the last two decades, the US government has spent more than eight billion US dollars on HIV/AIDS treatment of about 1.3 million people in Kenya through ‘Pepper’.
