During #WHA77, we discussed a big issue: Sexual & Reproductive Health & Rights. We believe that to build an equitable & inclusive world, we must ensure these rights. Everyone should be able to be who they are & access the care they need, without facing stigma or discrimination.

Pleased to meet Health & Welfare Minister Chiu Tai-Yuan in Geneva. New & existing threats to global health demand broad int'l cooperation. Through its exceptional capabilities, expertise, & resources, #TaiwanCanHelp the World Health Organization (WHO) live up to its commitment to #HealthForAll. #WHA77

An incredible #WHA77, capped by critical updates to the global health security architecture that promote transparency, improve equity, and protect sovereignty while saving lives in the U.S. and around the world. Kudos World Health Organization (WHO) member states on a job well done! geneva.usmission.gov/2024/06/02/u-s…

It's the 30th anniversary of the International Conference on Population & Development! We'll continue to champion sexual and reproductive health and rights. These are not only women’s issues—they are core to some of the most fundamental & important choices for any human being.

Ending the week celebrating an elevated partnership with ASEAN on shared health priorities, from healthcare delivery & workforce development to emergency management & response. Today's agreement builds on decades of collaboration across HHS and USG. asean.usmission.gov/u-s-strengthen…

Kudos to 🇵🇪 for hosting robust discussions on #globalhealth priorities across APEC Secretariat. We continue to build on multisector commitments in access to care, highlighting mental health and gender equity as well as ties to climate change. Making real progress... apec.org/meeting-papers…

In the spirit of starting a conversation and changing the narrative, let's talk about how this is personal for many of us. Mental health crises can affect anyone amongst our families, friends, colleagues, or communities. Speaking up fights stigma and saves lives worldwide.

Yesterday, 50,000 #mpox vaccines from HHS arrived in Democratic Republic of Congo. This represents a broader effort working across our expert agencies, HHS ASPR CDC U.S. FDA NIH, to ensure a fulsome regional response alongside Africa CDC and World Health Organization (WHO). cdc.gov/media/releases…

We understand at our highest levels that health emergencies require urgent action. That's why we've come together with Africa CDC WHO African Region & other partners on the current #Mpox response, calling for $1B and pledging 1M vaccines. Thank you, President Donald J. Trump! #UNGA79 whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/…

From antimicrobial resistance and climate adaptation to noncommunicable diseases and reproductive health, all these topics were on the table at this year's #UNGA79. But most important was the opportunity to reassert U.S. support for multilateralism and international cooperation.

Wrapping up a convening of health leaders from across the Americas PAHO/WHO where we discussed progress toward #UHC and #globalhealth equity, in addition to the spectrum of infectious and noncommunicable diseases. I am proud our region is a model for all World Health Organization (WHO) member states. #CD61

Grateful for the actions of Dr Sabin Nsanzimana and Ministry of Health | Rwanda to #StopMarburg in coordination with Africa CDC and WHO African Region. And glad that HHS could donate critical treatments and vaccines for local clinical trials that protect frontline health workers. A model partnership 🤝🏾

ICYMI, #globalhealth was discussed by G7 leaders last week and focused on frontier issues like global aging, ethical AI, long COVID, and AMR. Our work must continue evolving with global trends to meet global needs.

The #NAPAHPI marks a new milestone in regional health security! Thanks to the efforts of HHS, Department of State, Homeland Security, Dept. of Agriculture, and our partners in Mexico and Canada for making it happen. More details: hhs.gov/about/news/202…

Live from #G20Brazil ministerial, HHS is sharing our commitment to climate, equity, and innovation as critical drivers of progress in #globalhealth. We also reiterated our strong track record of funding and partnerships that facilitate coordinated action and access worldwide.

Thank you for the opportunity to offer some reflections on our Office of Global Affairs, HHS journey these past 4 years. It's really the shared result of #globalhealth security over decades, a legacy on which I hope we all continue to build.

#WAD2024 #LeaveNoOneBehind

Thrilled to cap off an incredible year - and personal tenure - with the release of our updated HHS global strategy. It reflects vast efforts by HHS agencies, from public health and disease prevention to healthcare and other direct services, for broad reach and real impact.

Equity, security, and technology are all critical levers in #healthdiplomacy that HHS is uniquely positioned to articulate for Americans and the world. Last week, I had a wide-ranging chat with CSIS Global Health on how global efforts today save us tomorrow. youtube.com/live/IbTz1pIZM…
