Liberia's Health Crisis: US Aid Ends, Clinics Suffer, Unplanned Pregnancies Rise

Liberia's Health Crisis Deepens After US Aid Withdrawal

Liberia is grappling with a significant healthcare crisis following the abrupt cessation of United States support. The withdrawal of crucial US aid is having a devastating impact on health clinics nationwide.

Empty Clinics and Rising Unplanned Pregnancies

Clinics are facing severe shortages of essential resources, directly affecting the quality of care provided to Liberians. One alarming consequence is the increasing number of unplanned pregnancies, highlighting the urgent need for accessible reproductive healthcare services.

Communities, such as the one in Bong County where Roseline Phay and her daughter Pauline reside, are experiencing the immediate and palpable effects of this sudden change. The future of healthcare accessibility in Liberia remains uncertain, demanding immediate attention and sustainable solutions to mitigate the crisis.
