There are children all over the world who lack access to essential immunization services. Most of these children live in rural and marginalized communities. Let's stand together for #VaccinesForAll , ensuring every child receives the protection they need to thrive.
With the rollout of two new malaria vaccines underway, 2024 marks a new era in the fight against this deadly disease. We need to continue U.S. leadership to invest in global health & ensure these vaccines reach the people who need them & save lives. #WorldImmunizationWeek
Granite Staters -- did you know World Immunization Week goes from April 24-30?
Vaccines play an invaluable role in the reduction of disease here in the U.S. and worldwide – and they save lives. #VaccinesForAll
Thank you Rosa DeLauro! Lifesaving vaccines should be within reach for everyone. Strong US support for global immunization programs through CDC Global Health and USAID Global Health is critical to reach these children and ensure #GHsecurity #VaccinesWork

Africa is facing a shortage of 5.3 million #healthworkers by 2030. The 🆕 Africa Health Workforce Investment Charter aims to cut this shortage in half by 2030!

The #Working4Health technical consultation on #HealthandCareWorkers #mentalhealth highlights that pooled estimates of burnout during the pandemic ranged from 41% to 52%. Increased absenteeism, anxiety, and depression were also reported. No significant change since 2022.
Shifting to the binôme approach is a strategic move for the DRC, which has the 2nd highest malaria burden globally. It's enhancing prevention efforts, yielding a 30% cost savings & freeing up #CWHs to focus on other priorities! #WorldMalariaDay Chemonics frontlinehealthworkers.org/blog/trinomes-…

Our goal of ending malaria is being threatened by climate change.
We must build strong, climate-resilient health systems to tackle the growing threat of malaria and other climate-sensitive infectious diseases.
