Nearly 50 organizations are sounding the alarm over cuts to sexual health prevention programs.
The groups are warning the Federal Council’s February decision to slash budgets threatens decades of progress in fighting HIV, hepatitis and sexually transmitted infections.
At the heart of their appeal is the NAPS program, designed to eliminate new transmissions by 2030.
Health professionals, stress that prevention is especially vital for young people and vulnerable groups such as sex workers.
Campaigners argue the cuts will dismantle proven policies and increase barriers to care and information, putting the entire population at greater risk.
