South Africa has the highest number of HIV-positive people in the world.

17% of HIV care comes from a U.S. program called the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, also known as PEPFAR .

A 90-day foreign aid funding freeze is in effect, following an executive order by President Trump last month .

The State Department later added a waiver for "lifesaving" aid, but NGOs that have already shut their doors aren't clear.
