Such a great article and important conversation via Dr. ⁦@conservationdoc⁩ The Lancet–PPATS Commission on Prevention of Viral Spillover: reducing the risk of pandemics through primary prevention - The Lancet thelancet.com/journals/lance…

My favorite aspect of this Commission is the amazing team—the Commissioners are brilliant and represent a huge range of perspectives. For the full list of Commissioners, see: preventingfuturepandemics.org/whoweare

A huge honor to be co-chairing this new @TheLancet / @PreventingPand Commission on Prevention of Viral Spillover with @rainamontana & Latiffah Hassan. Reducing risk of spillovers is critical for health equity & addressing the growing threat of pandemics. thelancet.com/journals/lance…

Did you know there is a @UN High Level Summit on Pandemics happening this week in New York? We chatted with @ConservationOrg Pandemic Prevention Fellow Dr. Neil Vora (@conservationdoc) about links between deforestation and pandemics.

“Long-eared bats? I hope white-nose syndrome wipes all of them out.”

Huge honor to have collaborated on this piece about policy approaches to biodiversity conservation while also improving human health. Hope this piece helps with implementation of action on the ground. thelancet.com/journals/lance… @ConservationOrg @PandemicAction @PreventingPand

Honor to have met @algore, @Justinjpearson, and so many other brilliant people fighting climate change at the TED conference this past week. And an honor to spoken there myself too. What a humbling experience. I’m grateful I get to do what I do every day. @TEDTalks

@syramadad Thanks so much, @syramadad !

Why rising interactions between bats and humans pose major global health risks “spillovers are increasing around the world because of what we humans are doing to nature and how we're interacting with animals around the world” @conservationdoc www-pbs-org.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.pbs.or…

@SaskiaPopescu Thanks so much, @SaskiaPopescu !

Such a great interview with Dr. ⁦@conservationdoc⁩ - the pieces of spillover and One Health that we don’t discuss enough- Why rising interactions between bats and humans pose major global health risks | PBS NewsHour pbs.org/newshour/show/…

The search for the origin of COVID-19 has highlighted the risks of viruses transmitted by certain species of bats. @conservationdoc joins @AliRogin on @NewsHour to discuss the risks and what can be done to keep both bats and humans safe. youtube.com/watch?v=Z4BL-L…

We must always remember that nature is very forgiving. If we give nature a chance, it will bounce back. And when we give nature a chance, we give #HumanHealth a chance. We give peace and prosperity a chance. We give people everywhere a chance. unep.org/news-and-stori…
