Which AFC Championship Game matchup do you think America wants to see the most?

Without treatment, HIV weakens the immune system, leading to weight loss and wasting. In #SouthSudan, @WFP provides specialized nutritious food so people living with HIV can recover from malnutrition and improve their quality of life. #WorldAIDSDay

On #WorldAIDSDay, we stand with women and girls whose voices are silenced by stigma, discrimination, and digital violence. Online abuse fuels fear and keeps many from accessing HIV & AIDS information and services. A safe digital world saves lives. #EndVAWG #StopDigitalVAWG#16Days

Proud to stand with our @WFPSomalia team in Baidoa, one of Somalia’s most critical hunger hotspots. With a high influx of displaced families, this team is constantly on the move, delivering around the clock. Honored to serve alongside these incredible men and women.

Packed with calories, vitamins, and minerals, fortified biscuits are delivered within the first 72 hours of an emergency, when cooking or clean water may be compromised. A small biscuit, a big difference. Learn more from WFP's Gwenaëlle 👇

@SwiftResponseHQ What about the cost? Any difference?

@flynorse looking for some advice? better to bid for an upgrade online or do it at the airport?

Malnutrition is on a dangerous trajectory in the Gaza Strip, marked by a spike in deaths in July. Of 74 malnutrition-related deaths in 2025, 63 occurred in July—including 24 children under five, a child over five, and 38 adults. Most of these people were declared dead on arrival at health facilities or died shortly after, their bodies showing clear signs of severe wasting. The crisis remains entirely preventable. Deliberate blocking and delay of large-scale food, health, and humanitarian aid has cost many lives. Nearly one in five children under five in #Gaza City is now acutely malnourished, as reported by Nutrition Cluster partners. Global Acute Malnutrition (GAM), which measures the percentage of children aged 6–59 months suffering from acute malnutrition, has tripled since June, making it the worst-hit area in the Gaza Strip. In Khan Younis and the Middle Area, rates have doubled in less than one month. These figures are likely an underestimation due to the severe access and security constraints preventing many families from reaching health facilities. So far in July, over 5000 children under five have already been admitted for outpatient treatment of malnutrition in just the first two weeks, 18% of them with Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM), the most life-threatening form. This continues a significant rising trend since May, with 6500 children admitted for treatment in June, which is the highest number recorded since October 2023. An additional 73 children with SAM and medical complications were hospitalized in July, compared to 39 in June, bringing total inpatient admissions in 2025 to 263. This surge in cases is overwhelming the only four specialized malnutrition treatment centres in the Gaza Strip, pushing an already fragile health system closer to collapse. All four centres are working beyond capacity, running low on fuel, with their supplies expected to run out by mid-next month. Health workers are exhausted, and the breakdown of water and sanitation systems is accelerating the spread of disease, driving a dangerous cycle of illness and death. The crisis is taking a severe toll on pregnant and breastfeeding women. Recent Nutrition Cluster screening data shows that over 40% are severely malnourished. The situation is most critical in the Middle Area, where rates have tripled compared to June, and in Gaza City and Khan Younis, where they have doubled. It is not only hunger that is killing people but also the desperate search for food. Families are being forced to risk their lives for a handful of food, often under dangerous and chaotic conditions. Since 27 May, more than 1060 people have been killed and 7200 injured while trying to access food. ▶️ WHO calls for urgent, sustained efforts to flood the Gaza Strip with diverse, nutritious food and to expedite the delivery of therapeutic supplies for children and vulnerable groups, as well as essential medicines and supplies. This flow must remain consistent and unhindered to support recovery and prevent further deterioration. ▶️WHO reiterates its call for the protection of civilians and health. ▶️WHO also calls for the release of our detained colleague, the release of hostages, and for an immediate #ceasefire.

@HIVGov Well said!

Healthy eating helps people with HIV maintain a healthy weight and efficiently absorb their HIV medications. Make sure that every day you eat a variety of: • Fruits • Vegetables • Grains • Proteins • Dairy Learn more about healthy eating and HIV: hiv.gov/hiv-basics/liv… #HIV

The end of AIDS is not a mystery. It's a choice. A choice to invest. A choice to protect. A choice to act. A choice to stand together in solidarity. Let us make that choice now, and make it count.

@COsoccerpod Accurate

Wonderfully low quality nonsense so far.

We are starting soon!!

Mobile populations, as truck drivers, and those living along transport corridors are more vulnerable to #HIV & other sexually transmitted infections (STI) In central 🇲🇿, @WFP provides access to primary health care, HIV testing, anti-retroviral therapy and STI screening services

Every day, over 28,000 children in #Eswatini receive community-grown, fresh and nutritious 🥬🍏🥕 meals thanks to gardens like this one.👇 1 in every 4 children in Eswatini loses their parents to HIV. Neighbourhood care points help make sure no child is left behind.💙

Live from Ethiopia Day 1: the @UN is delivering as one with @UNAIDS, @UNICEF, @Refugees, and @WFP starting a joint humanitarian mission! Key objectives include: Understanding the #HIV, #SRH and #GBV landscape Enhancing coordination among #health actors 🧵👇🏿

≈194k people are living with HIV in #SouthSudan @WFP provides specialized nutritious food to people living with HIV for them to recover from malnutrition and improve their quality of life. #WorldAIDSDay

1/2 🎗️🌍 #WorldAIDSDay, Patience*, a mother of three living with #HIV in North Kivu, saw her health deteriorating despite antiretroviral treatment, due to inadequate nutrition. From #WFP, the enriched porridge (CSB+) has become a lifeline for her and other patients.

Everybody deserves to live free from fear and has a right to safety, including refugees living with HIV. On #WorldAIDSDay, let's speak up for their human rights.

#Cameroon🇨🇲 Women & girls living with #HIV/AIDS face increased risks of #GBV, which affects their #foodsecurity & nutrition. Empowering them with safety, support & equal access to resources is vital for their health & wellbeing. #WorldAIDSDay @whocmr @Zahralillian @UNFPACameroon
