💨 Abstract

US President Donald Trump’s abrupt cut in foreign health aid has severely impacted Zimbabwe’s sex workers, leaving them without essential HIV prevention tools andCare. The US-funded programs, particularly PEPFAR, had long supported Zimbabwe’s fragile health system, providing free condoms, antiretrovirals, and medical care. With these facilities closed or depleted, sex workers, including HIV-positive individuals, now face heightened risks.
