In a significant blow to the US healthcare sector, renowned research institution Johns Hopkins is set to slash 2,000 jobs due to a massive funding cut. The termination of over $800 million in USAID funding has forced the institution to wind down critical health research work, affecting its entire community. This move is expected to have far-reaching implications for medical research and healthcare innovation, with experts warning of a potential brain drain. The funding cuts will also impact global health initiatives, highlighting the need for sustainable healthcare funding models. Key areas like medical research and development will be severely impacted.
