The pandemic tested our economies, societies and health systems to the limit.
But it showed what we can achieve when we work together in true solidarity.
From pandemic preparedness to mental health, to cancer, the #HealthUnion is putting citizens and patients at the centre.
Very honoured to have joined HRH Prince William The Prince and Princess of Wales and Prof. Dame Sally Davies in London to discuss the 🌍 antibiotic emergency.
Antimicrobial resistance can become a major health crisis.

Climate change is a serious risk for health.
Floods, droughts, water scarcity and air pollution already affect us.
My message to Green Agenda Cyprus Summit ⬇️
We need to build climate resilience & integrate “One Health” in all policies.
This is a #HealthUnion priority.
Too many people in the EU whose lives have been touched by cancer still face significant obstacles in access to financial services.
Overcoming discrimination and protecting the right to be forgotten is an important part of #EUCancerPlan .
#HealthUnion
Physical and mental health are equally important components of our health.
All Europeans deserve access to high quality mental healthcare.
At European Economic and Social Committee 🇪🇺 Mental Health Week event, we discussed our next steps.
