Elton John declares he will 'fight' over cuts to AIDS relief spending as he warns 'people's lives are at stake'
Sir Elton John said he is ready to 'fight' and go 'face to face' with President Trump over cuts to AIDS relief spending.
The Rocketman singer, 78, refused to criticise Trump's White House because of his work with the Elton John Aids Foundation, but he did say that the political landscape looks 'a little shaky'. Emily Chambers Sharpe, health director at World Relief, the humanitarian arm of the National Association of Evangelicals, said that healthcare centers and hospitals in Africa have reported 'the supply chain for HIV as a whole has been very badly damaged' by the aid cuts. Others are less dependent on the program, but Pepfar still provides important health infrastructure because its clinics employ medical staff who treat other conditions as part of the broader programme of combatting Aids.
