. World Health Organization (WHO) normative powers are unparalleled in int'l law, yet WHO has negotiated only 2 major treaties (IHR & FCTC). And now Geneva negotiations on a Pandemic Accord and IHR reform have stalled.

Catching up with Raj Panjabi, MD at #SkollWF ! Grateful that he uses his platforms at Last Mile Health U.S. President's Malaria Initiative (PMI) The White House Skoll Foundation to make reforms for women in the #healthworkforce especially #proCHWs driven by the health equity & justice agenda.
Thanks 🙏 Women In Global Health

.World Health Organization (WHO) and partners went to Khan Younis yesterday to assess the health facilities there. The team described the destruction as 'disproportionate to anything one can imagine'. No building or road is intact, there is only rubble and dirt.

Hostilities in the vicinity of a WHO…

Update from Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus 👇

Thanks as always Eric Feigl-Ding !
Talking to colleagues from World Health Organization (WHO), there is ALSO a major issue just deploying #vaccinations and getting these to families and children where they live, go to school

As we head to #WorldImmunizationWeek this is a #measles crisis

The new Deputy Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO) is Dr Mike Ryan, who will assume the new position alongside his current post as the executive director of Health Emergencies, Preparedness and Response.

One in 70 in #gaza killed
Nearly 14,000 children killed
1,000 children have lost one or both legs from bombs

#Israel & #America will be immeasurably LESS safe from this “war”

And history will judge those responsible w horror aljazeera.com/news/2024/4/7/…

Totally agree Raj Panjabi, MD !

Like you and I have talked about- we need to take #vaccines & #therapeutics out of the clinic & to where people live & work

That is a mission for #USA & rest of world (& something we believe in ApiJect !)

Helena Ferro de Gouveia Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus World Central Kitchen so its okay killing unarmed UN workers? how’s that justifiable? have you gone mad?

The devastating Israeli airstrikes that killed World Central Kitchen personnel yesterday bring the number of aid workers killed in this conflict to 196 – including more than 175 members of our own United Nations staff.

This is unconscionable.

Wars have rules that must be respected by all sides.

Humanitarians must be able to safely deliver aid.

They are #NotATarget .

They must be protected.

Everywhere.

At all times.

Please note the time change for our Happy Hour at Booth 501. Hope to see you on Wednesday!

Israel's closest allies -- the US, the UK, and Germany -- are all stepping up their criticism of Israel's bombing and starving of Palestinian civilians in Gaza, but Israel hasn't stopped because its allies continue to send it arms for these war crimes. theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…

Four years ago today, I walked into the apocalypse.

Crossing the line in the ER felt like entering a whole other world.

Frenetic alarms.

Patients strewn about, struggling to breathe.

Too few staff. Too many deaths.

Covid was everything.

It had completely taken over our ER

21 patients have died since the hospital came under siege on 18 March. Hostilities continue around the hospital according to updates from Al-Shifa hospital in #Gaza reported by a health worker inside the hospital.

107 patients are in an inadequate building, within the hospital…

From us at WHO/Europe an #Easter wish for peace across our Region and our 🌍.

An enduring ceasefire and unfettered humanitarian aid for #Gaza .

The return of all hostages taken from #Israel .

An end to conflict in Eastern Europe.

Peace - truly the best medicine of all. 🕊️

'One of the most vital systems that can't afford to stop work–and is even more in need during war-is #healthcare .' Edward Kelley w/ #ABCNewsAustralia , on the weaponization of healthcare during conflict.
