With the 2007/2008 NIH cuts, laboratories were closed and research on many diseases halted or even stopped permanently. It takes years to build a functioning research lab and one year of defunding can destroy it. Laid off researchers often go into other careers and never go back. The NIH provides 40% of such funding worldwide and many US hospitals and universities rely on that funding to survive.
