Caritas Zambia has noted with deep concern the decision by the United States government to cut aid for essential medicines in Zambia. We understand that this decision stems from credible reports of theft and the illegal sale of donated medicines within our healthcare system. While we unequivocally condemn any form of corruption and the criminal actions of individuals who pilfer resources meant for the sick and vulnerable, we must also voice our profound worry about the devastating impact this aid cut will have on the lives of countless Zambians who rely on these vital medications.
