Although the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services cut Ryan White Title I grants for HIV medical care and support programs to 51 U.S. urban centers by 1.3% from 2005 levels, the cuts were not across the board. Several major U.S. cities with large populations of HIVers received disproportionate cuts, with San Antonio at the top of the list.
