So right now, there are nearly 400,000 verifiable deaths due to the cuts of these programs. It's on track to be way worse than what I imagined, several million to 14 million.

I'm sorry but that's just straight up evil behavior.

These are hypotheticals / estimates, not verifiable.

If the funding cuts were so critical why have other wealthy countries or individuals not stepped in to fund them?

Are they all evil too?
