The two-year global health replenishment traffic jam is finally starting to clear up, offering some insight into just what impact the tangle of overlapping fundraising efforts is having.

The Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria will launch its latest replenishment drive in 2025.
There was some alarm that neither of the two institutions that have so far wrapped up their fundraising efforts — WHO and the IDA — hit their targets. But experts see some positive signs, including a growing pool of donors.
