Deeply grateful to all 13 Ministers of Health who joined @Gavi’s #GaviLeap In Action event to provide rich insights into how we can evolve together to protect and sustain hard-won gains in a constrained global health environment. We learned how the shift towards greater country leadership and sovereignty is beginning to take shape in practice and how Gavi can continue to support this journey. Gavi is fully committed to empowering countries to have more agency over how funding is deployed. @HelenClarkNZ

After seeing 24 children in her community get vaccinated and stay healthy, a mother’s fear turned to trust. "I brought my own child forward for protection," she says. Between March and April alone, 78 more children were reached due to word-of-mouth. Turns out trust is contagious. bit.ly/43jtXkF

“I want the best for my children. It is my duty to protect them at all times.” Following the detection of polio in Malawi earlier this year, parents are taking action and health authorities are rolling out robust national vaccination campaigns to stop the virus from spreading further. Here's how caregivers and communities are uniting to protect their children: bit.ly/3Pvw2Xm

Improving vaccination coverage isn't always just about reaching more families. In Pakistan, new research highlights how missed opportunities within health facilities themselves can leave children unprotected despite contact with healthcare providers. Read more: bit.ly/4tJ9qAV via @ahkf_pk

When outbreaks strike, adequate financing and delivery systems must be ready to be deployed when the need arises. @Gavi convened partners for an event in the margins of #WHA79 to outline the tools and mechanisms Gavi has innovated to deploy during public health emergencies. However, comprehensive pandemic preparedness, prevention and response requires urgent gaps to be addressed: bit.ly/4v8ecsW

The faster an effective vaccine is developed and deployed, the faster a pandemic can be contained and controlled. Pleased to sign a memorandum of understanding between @CEPIvaccines and @Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance alongside @DrRHatchett to strengthen our collaboration and align our outbreak response work and pandemic preparedness agendas. We greatly appreciate our longstanding partnership with CEPI to help ensure that vaccines can be scaled rapidly and made available where they are most needed.

The most fascinating takeaway? Wealthier peasants with bigger plots of land had way better survival rates. It's a stark reminder that even back in the 14th century, your living conditions and food security directly dictated your health outcomes. Some things never change Dive into this rare look at ancient pandemic recovery: bit.ly/4dBwBa3 via @ConversationUK

Found in the records of an old English abbey, this document is basically a medieval version of tracking sick leave. It shows exactly how many weeks workers were excused from hard labour. Turns out, while some lucky folks bounced back in a week, others faced up to 9 weeks of "long suffering" before they could get back to the fields.

When we think about the Black Death, we usually just think about the catastrophic death toll. But a forgotten scrap of parchment from 1349 flips the script by naming 22 ordinary people who actually survived the plague. Here’s what this 670-year-old “sick list” means... 🧵👇

As global health budgets tighten, how should countries and policymakers decide which vaccines should be prioritised? While the answer varies depending on geography, context and myriad other factors, researchers have weighed up one crucial metric, comparing 14 vaccines on the number of deaths or disability-adjusted life years prevented.

During health emergencies, @Gavi’s role is centred on coordinating the vaccine response. Our statement outlines how we are coordinating with our partner agency, @CEPIvaccines as part of the global response to the #Ebola disease outbreak, caused by the Bundibugyo virus: bit.ly/3RlYUCa

“Malaria is like a thief that stalks the night.” Every family in Mali knows this fear. But a massive shift is underway. One year ago, Mali launched a historic, first-of-its-kind malaria vaccine rollout. Early results show how countries can use vaccines alongside other prevention tools like seasonal malaria chemoprevention and insecticide-treated bed nets to help give children under five the highest level of protection possible.

Confined spaces have always been a haven for pathogens. And as the recent Andes hantavirus outbreak reminds us, outbreaks at sea remain one of our oldest public health challenges. Here’s why international data sharing is the key to keeping us safe, both on land and at sea: bit.ly/4femf2H

❓How do you overcome generations of vaccine fear and misinformation? In an informal settlement in Lahore, a team made up of 2 CSOs and an Islamic scholar started by listening. By answering questions openly, they helped 24 wary families take the first step toward immunisation. The full story: bit.ly/43jtXkF
