This nationwide polio campaign in South Sudan, backed by World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF, is a critical response to cVDPV2. Vaccinating 3.47 million children will help secure a healthier future for our next generation. Every child must be protected. #EndPolio  tinyurl.com/sjyhprn9

30 million cases of vaccine-preventable diseases can be avoided each year in Africa. With the implementation of the Addis Declaration on Immunization, we can close the gap and ensure no child is left behind. #Recommit2ADI #VaccinesWork UNICEF WHO African Region

One million children could die. 75 million children will miss out on vaccines. That’s the cost of cutting support to @Gavi. That means more measles, more polio, more loss targeting the world’s most vulnerable.Let’s protect every child. #VaccinesWork bbc.com/news/articles/…

Uganda has made history by launching the largest malaria vaccine rollout to date. 1.1 million children will be reached across 105 districts. This is a huge step forward in Africa’s fight against malaria. #EndMalaria #VaccinesWork Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance gavi.org/news/media-roo…

Behind every statistic about #zerodose children are real communities facing real barriers. In Eyumojock, Cameroon, health workers are climbing hills, crossing rivers and navigating conflict zones to protect the most vulnerable. bit.ly/4cFv8yY

In Eyumojock, Cameroon, health workers are crossing rivers, hills, and conflict zones to reach zero-dose children. Vaccines save lives, but only if they reach every child, everywhere. We must invest in equity, access, and trust. #VaccinesWork Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance gavi.org/vaccineswork/c…

Malaria is preventable. Curable. But if we cut funding, we cut lives. We must not undo decades of global progress, putting 58 million children at risk. Sustained investment is global health security. #EndMalaria #HealthForAll WHO African Region Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance who.int/philippines/ne…

On this World Malaria Day, we remember that malaria still kills one person every minute, mainly in Africa. In 2023 alone, 597,000 lives were lost. Progress is possible, but only if we stay the course. Every dose, every net, every life counts. #WorldMalariaDay #EndMalariaNow

Children in sub-Saharan Africa are 18x more likely to die before age five than children in high-income countries. At #WHA78, I urge leaders to fund stronger primary care and routine immunization systems. Every child deserves a fair shot at life. #HealthForAll #VaccinesWork
