The Tennessee Decision: A Tipping Point for HIV Funding in the South?

On January 17th, Tennessee Governor Bill Lee informed HIV-serving organizations that the state would be rejecting federal HIV prevention and surveillance funds and would be returning those funds back to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
