“Parading on hospital compounds w giant figurative cheques to show gifts …from #alcohol companies may serve interests of alcohol brand, & even needs of a particular hospital deficit @ a point in time, but it undermines legitimacy of public health…” @christufton @themohwgovjm 🇯🇲

Today, we're launching Future Healthy — our brand new $45 million, 3-year investment in young people, wellbeing and recovery. It's all about listening to young people across Victoria, and putting the opportunities in place as we emerge from COVID for them to achieve good health.

At least two in three children are not eating the minimum diet they need to grow, develop, and learn to their full potential. This hurts not just children – it hurts us all. Read our report: Fed to Fail? @unicef shar.es/aWGOnj

"For children, food is life, growth, development & health, but also joy & happiness". Children around the world told us that they know what foods are nutritious, but that these foods are often too expensive or simply unavailable. Read more here: unicef.org/documents/fix-…

⚠️Well timed ahead of @FoodSystems Summit where #BigFood actors are set to position as ‘part of the solutions’ for various forms of malnutrition - recommended reading for Member State & UN agency #FoodSystems & #nutrition focal points - before it’s too late. #UNFSS2021 #ActOnNCDs
Jenn Lacy-Nichols@JLacyNichols

🔥New paper!! In a nutshell: Big Food's "we are part of the solution" to obesity/NCDs is hugely profitable and retrenches political power. ps: yes, we talk about Gramsci/hegemony ;) ijhpm.com/article_4138.h…

.@UNICEF is convinced that a food systems transformation is desperately needed to address the crisis in child diets, improve the quality of children's foods, their food environments & food practices. Next week's UN Food System Summit is only the beginning. unicef.org/documents/food…

Happy World Breastfeeding Week! As we mark the 40th year of the International Code of Marketing of Breast-milk Substitutes, how can we strengthen its worldwide implementation? Our paper shows that confronting & constraining corporate power over first-food systems will be crucial
Phillip Baker@PhilBakerNZ

NEW PAPER OUT!! 🔥 Reveals extensive & globally coordinated political activity of the baby food industry to weaken #BMSCode implementation. To strengthen #BMSCodeAt40 we must directly confront & constrain corporate power over first-food systems. Please RT. bit.ly/3wsFYlr

If we studied every person who died in Australia, it’s likely many would have eaten toast in the previous week. It doesn’t mean the toast killed them. Know the facts, and listen to experts like @VictorianCHO. #covid19vic
Dr Sandro Demaio@SandroDemaio

A false Facebook meme has been circulating, claiming an untrue number of deaths linked with the current vaccine rollout. Misinformation like this is dangerous. Now more than ever, know the facts: aap.com.au/meme-misuses-a… #covid19vic

What a legend! Soccer superstar @Cristiano removes two branded cola bottles from the desk during his press conference, and says “drink water” instead. Leadership like this matters. Kids around the world will see this & act. @Raf_Epstein @LisaMillar
