By 2030, our projections show that 60% of people living with HIV in western & central Africa will be over 40, and 65% will be girls & women. Leaders must strengthen HIV services for older adults, prioritize care for women and girls, and tackle the barriers driving these trends.

The SDG indicator measuring access to medicines is at risk of being deprioritized. This paper outlines 3 reasons: -Measurement fatigue -Complex measurement methods -Lack of political prioritization of #A2M policies The authors call for sustained commitment to measuring #A2M

📣 New article in the @WHOBulletin w/ @VeroWirtz Access to medicines indicator in the #SDGs is at risk of being dropped @UNStats. There is no #UHC without dealing with catastrophic 💸 caused by meds. We examine the reasons and ways to strengthen the #A2M indicators in #SDGs

A lot of discussion about drug prices is abstract, but this is striking. This is a forecast sent out by Michael Yee at Jefferies for the GLP-1 drugs, forecasting sales of more than $120 billion. You'll notice 80% of the sales (that black line) are in the U.S. That's likely as much because of differences in price as usage. There's a good chance that GLP-1 drugs will save the U.S. money even at these high prices. And if the U.S. just cut what it pays all the way to what is paid by other nations, there would be a lot less money being put into developing these medicines. But the U.S. is paying 5x the whole rest of the world. The Jefferies report has a ton of interesting information on the companies developing these meds.

In public life the ultimate deadly sin is not to act recognizing that public resources belong to all and must be used with the utmost sense of accountability and modesty. The morality that encourages the tragedy of the commons is a deadly social sin

How do governments measure progress in access to quality healthcare? If health is a human right, are citizens empowered to demand quality health care? What should access to quality healthcare look like This video by @TheLancet offers some ideas
