Clinton Health Initiative Spent Only a Fraction Directly on Programs

A Clinton initiative founded in 2002 to save lives infected with HIV/AIDS spent only $23 million of its $140 million of expenditures in 2016 directly on programs, according to financial records on the initiative’s website.

According to its website, the Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) was set up in 2002 to help save lives by providing treatment to those living with HIV/AIDS. The Clinton Foundation describes CHAI as a “separate, affiliated entity” from the controversial foundation. CHAI summarizes its approach as a “solution-oriented approach”:

CHAI’s solution-oriented approach focuses on both global and national level work by rapidly improving market dynamics for medicines and diagnostics; lowering prices for treatment; accelerating access to lifesaving technologies; and helping governments build the capacity required for high-quality care and treatment programs.

Another Clinton scam just doing enough to make it look like something's being done, another organization that needs a deep 3rd party audit.
And let's not forget the years that Africa's AIDS patients were given watered down antiviral drugs provided by the Foundation, giving a death sentence to the afflicted and potentially growing strains of medication resistant viruses.
