美国计划摧毁970万美元用于非洲国家的未用避孕药具, 引发全球对可预防的健康危机的强烈抗议。 The U.S. plans to destroy $9.7M in unused contraceptives meant for African nations, sparking global outcry over preventable health crises.

美国国务院计划销毁储存在比利时的价值970万美元的美国资助的避孕药具, 原因是特朗普政府冻结外国援助, The U.S. State Department plans to destroy $9.7 million worth of unexpired, U.S.-funded contraceptives stored in Belgium due to the Trump administration’s freeze on foreign aid, drawing global criticism. 人道主义团体主动提出购买和分发这些用品,这些用品是打算提供给5个面临避孕药具短缺的非洲国家,但美国政府没有接受这些用品。 Humanitarian groups offered to buy and distribute the supplies, which were intended for five African nations facing contraceptive shortages, but the U.S. government has not accepted these offers. 据卫生专家说,破坏可能导致数十万次意外怀孕、意外分娩、不安全堕胎和可预防的孕产妇死亡。 The destruction could lead to hundreds of thousands of unintended pregnancies, unplanned births, unsafe abortions, and preventable maternal deaths, according to health experts. 70多个组织已敦促国务卿马尔科·鲁比奥停止该计划,强调存在防止丧失救命用品的替代办法。 Over 70 organizations have urged Secretary of State Marco Rubio to halt the plan, emphasizing that alternatives exist to prevent the loss of life-saving supplies. 避孕药具的现状仍然不确定,有关这些避孕药具是否已被销毁或仍在储存中的报告相互矛盾。 The current status of the contraceptives remains uncertain, with conflicting reports on whether they have been destroyed or remain in storage.
