The Trump administration is discussing cuts to the CDC’s domestic HIV program, including funding for prevention, according to two former HHS officials who were granted anonymity to discuss their conversations with current staff.

Carl Schmid, the executive director of the HIV+Hepatitis Policy Institute in Washington, told Reuters he had been told by a government agency source that the division might be shut down and that a decision would be made this week on the funding of HIV prevention at the CDC.

The Trump administration is expected to drastically downsize the CDC's Division of HIV Prevention, a senior official with the Department of Health and Human Services said Tuesday.
