At today’s @UNITAID event during #WHA78, I emphasized that Africa must lead in shaping health solutions, by investing in local manufacturing, driving innovation, and building stronger health systems. Together, we can secure a healthier, self-reliant future. --------- Lors de l'événement @UNITAID aujourd’hui en marge de la #WHA78, j'ai souligné que l’Afrique doit être à l’avant-garde des solutions de santé — en investissant dans la fabrication locale, l’innovation et le renforcement des systèmes de santé. Ensemble, bâtissons un avenir plus sain et autonome. @AfricaCDC @_AfricanUnion

Anti-LGBTQ laws undermine public health. We in the AIDS movement have been centring human rights in the health space. We have refused to accept that you can deliver health services and succeed, without putting human rights at the centre. #IDAHOBIT #RightsEqualsHealth

World Hepatitis Alliance@Hep_Alliance·
@TAvafia emphasises the importance of not just investing in treatment but also the surrounding eco-system, diagnostics and other areas to support uptake and improved access to medicine for hepatitis. Also, what do you do when you don’t have the resources? - Start small, demonstrate success, and build on that success to make investment cases. #WorldHepatitisSummit #IntegrateAccelerateEliminate

#Hepatitis B can be prevented with a safe and effective vaccine. The vaccine is usually given soon after birth with boosters a few weeks later. It offers nearly 100% protection against the virus. bit.ly/3b8J3Cc

The devastating Israeli airstrikes that killed @WCKitchen personnel yesterday bring the number of aid workers killed in this conflict to 196 – including more than 175 members of our own @UN staff. This is unconscionable.
