The situation in the UK is deeply concerning. Health is declining and health inequalities are widening. This is not the case with other European countries. The UK's rankings have gone down since 2014. What a tragic waste of lives UCL The BMJ

NEW: an ideological divide is emerging between young men and women in many countries around the world. I think this one of the most important social trends unfolding today, and provides the answer to several puzzles.

One of the best - and more personal - EC campaigns? And yet, the #eucancerplan doesn't look at #alcohol & #tobacco Prevention is not about magic, prevention is about tackling the most influential factors: #tobacco, #alcohol, #ultraprocessfoods, and #physicalactivit

Closing the #Schools4Health seminar Caroline Costongs shares her key take-aways. The urgency has never been greater. We need a systematic approach to healthy schools, going beyond putting health in curricula, to creating healthy environments - A joint responsibility across sectors.'

Great to hear from Stella Kyriakides at the #ConfHealthUnion2. However more is needed to put social equity at the heart of the European Health Union. Plus advancing legal action to prevent NCDs, climate health concerns and health promotion. EuroHealthNet #EU2024BE

At @EU2024BE event on the Future of Social Europe we discuss the European Pillar of #SocialRights. Minister Johannes Rauch from Austria for example confirmed that health and social policy go hand in hand. Investment in health services is a social investment. Solidarity is key
