Just spoke to a senior doctor at Al Shifa hospital in Gaza, could hear gunfire in the background whilst he described a horrific scene: +30 babies from neo natal unit at major risk: taken out of incubators and placed in an operating theatre because barely any electricity, 2 died

In our new piece in The Lancet Global Health, we found that conflict was associated with increased cholera incidence (up to 2.06x risk with severe conflict) in #Yemen even after controlling for relevant environmental, economic, and demographic factors. thelancet.com/journals/langl…

From COVID-19 to this moment, Western leaders have shed any illusion that they must play by any global world order. As Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus plainly put, "The current situation is unbearable and unjustifiable." Western leaders know there is no justification. #CeasefireNOW

“The team was able to spend only one hour inside the hospital, which they described as a “death zone.” … Signs of shelling and gunfire were evident. The team saw a mass grave at the entrance … with more than 80 people were buried.” This is a moral failure. #CeasefireNOW

In PUBLIC HEALTH, population wellbeing is our business, therefore: Education is our business. The environment is our business. Poverty is our business. Discrimination is our business. War & violence are our business. So holding politics to account is absolutely our business.

Key update from Syrian Network on #children killed in #Syria - indirect deaths & suffering multifold higher. Important that #media use accurate figures as #UN figures underestimate vastly. Supplement with Vinay & sams_usa review of #paediatric #health in Syrian #conflict link👇

It's great to see FDA approval for these new lifesaving #sicklecell therapies, but they will remain out of reach in Africa, where there is immense need. Stephanie Nolen #globalhealth nytimes.com/2023/12/08/hea…

It's #UHCDay! To truly achieve inclusive #UHC, #refugees & #migrants should be able to enjoy timely access to high-quality, affordable #health services sensitive to their needs and appropriate for their culture and beliefs, everywhere, at any time, whatever their migration status

Given how our practice of "global health" is going, we might as well preface the term with "allegedly" or "conditional": Global health is allegedly focused on equity & health for all I am a conditional global health researcher I work at the Conditional Global Health Institute🤷🏾‍♀️

We hoped this day would never come. For weeks we have been warning there is no feasible evacuation plan to lawfully displace & protect civilians. The incursion will risk the lives of >600,000 children & the collapse of the humanitarian aid response. savethechildren.net/news/save-chil…
