this makes me angry. in the age of #infodemics and #misinformation, positive intent is choked before projects see the light of day. - despite never saying that they plan to limit travel between nbhds & clarifying the goal is to create more walkable nbhds, misinformation persists.

Just attended a brilliant talk by Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, DG of WTO at London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine on global health equity and the role of trade. Her message on trade and climate: 'No one country can do it all; countries may compete on what they’re environmentally strong at’ 🌱🌏 The John Snow Society

“If access to health care is a human right, who is considered human enough to have that right?” – Farmer. Quoted by South Africa’s MoH at #G20, urging leaders to advance global health equity through #UHC. A powerful reminder that UHC isn’t just policy; it’s a moral imperative.

This thing is a hot mess, tbh. -mRNA is "promising technology"; may deliver "breakthroughs in treating disease" -during covid, operation warp speed was a "paradigm shift", "innovation in trial design", produced a new vaccine "in record time" and yet...Bhattacharya supports
