The United States is \u201cchanging the model, not the mission\u201d of its global HIV programmes, Jeff Graham, acting US Global AIDS Coordinator, told a pre-conference session organised by the US government at AIDS 2026 in Rio de Janeiro on 26 July.<\/p>\n
Minutes into his presentation, activists took the stage chanting \u201cYou lie, people die, restore PEPFAR now.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe last 16 months have been a public health emergency caused by your government\u2019s deadly disruptions in PEPFAR programming and global health aid, and we will not allow this fact to be erased,\u201d Asia Russell, Executive Director of Health GAP, told Graham. \u201cWe will not allow our communities to be erased by your anti-science, anti-LGBTQ, anti-participation agenda.\u201d<\/p>\n
Graham did not respond directly to the protest and his presentation resumed once the activists left the stage. But an analysis presented in an abstract session on 29 July found that it is not only the model that has changed, but the mission too.<\/p>\n
