"Blood transfusion in Kenya faces an uncertain future"

The Lancet

Kenya has the joint fourth-largest HIV/AIDS epidemic in the world, alongside Mozambique and Uganda, according to UNAIDS, but PEPFAR has decided to cut its spending on HIV programmes in sub-Saharan Africa. PEPFAR said it has invested billions in Kenya since 2004. Countries in east Africa, especially Kenya, Tanzania, and Uganda, rely heavily on PEPFAR funding for their HIV/AIDS projects.
