Uganda is reporting a rise in disease-related deaths following the Trump administration's elimination of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). PBS News reports the change followed the administration's decision to dissolve USAID, which had funded health programs and disease-control efforts in Uganda. The report does not include nationwide data or detailed counts, but local hospitals and health workers told reporters they have seen more deaths from preventable infectious illnesses.
