Mateboho Talitha Fusi, who is HIV-positive, poses for a portrait in Ha Koloboi, Lesotho, Saturday, July 12, 2025. Fusi is part of a peer-support group in her village, a concept that came about with U.S.-funded programs to help communities and residents live with HIV and support each other during lifelong treatments. Fusi still has access to her medication, but since the aid cuts, she'd been receiving fewer pills in each refill, causing worry for the future. (AP Photo/Bram Janssen)
