The Cameroon Baptist Convention Health Services (CBCHS) has announced a three-month salary suspension for employees working on US-funded projects. This decision comes in response to the Trump administration’s halt on federal funding, which has significantly impacted the financial stability of these projects. The suspension will affect salaries from January 25 to April 24.
The CBCHS has been receiving funding through the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to provide anti-retroviral medication for HIV patients. The suspension of funding has raised concerns about the availability of these essential medications and the potential impact on patients’ health.
The Trump administration’s decision to freeze federal funding has led to widespread confusion and legal challenges. A federal judge has temporarily blocked the funding freeze, but the uncertainty remains as the legal battle continues
