Global Health Watch: State Dept. diverts millions for contraception, who's leading US global health, new Global Fund ED, UNAIDS' future
For nearly two years, the US Administration has ignored Congress and denied women and couples of life-saving sexual and reproductive health commodities. So this week’s breaking news that the US Department of State is shifting millions of dollars appropriated by Congress for contraception to “stem some of the bleeding they’ve caused by starting a reckless war and creating a global energy crisis” is perhaps not surprising. But it is appalling, nonetheless. With the US midterm elections happening next week, all members of Congress, irrespective of party or ideology, should be speaking up and taking back their power of the purse.

PxWire Volume 16, Issue 3
This issue of PxWire showcases updates presented at the AIDS 2026 conference in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. As the field continues to grapple with the impact of PEPFAR funding cuts on HIV services, amfAR shared their latest analysis from the PEPFAR Pulse Study. AVAC’s latest infographic unpacks the current status of generic licensing agreements for long-acting PrEP products. Recent trials on long-acting treatment and broadly neutralizing antibodies (bNAbs) for prevention were also shared at the conference. A new weekly pill for HIV treatment demonstrated non-inferiority, while a combination of two bNAbs did not provide protection from HIV. Both results provided important insights and implications for the current status of the HIV prevention and treatment pipelines.
