Argentina's government under Javier Milei has slashed public health funding by 63 billion pesos (€38 million), triggering mass protests in Buenos Aires and other cities. The cuts have dismantled cancer treatment programs, vaccine distribution networks, and sexual health services, resulting in a 6.25% rise in infant mortality, whooping cough deaths among babies, and measles outbreaks—diseases previously controlled. Hospital directors warn that public medical centers will cease functioning within six weeks without restored university funding.
