Together with @WHO, we’ve launched EIOS 2.0, a next-gen epidemic intelligence from open sources. To detect new pathogens faster & understand them better, we must keep advancing our digital tools. Global health security must be a shared priority, not just an aspiration.

Delighted to have joined the #CEPI panel on preparing for future pandemics. We discussed how to overcome fragmentation and strengthen cooperation on medical countermeasures (#MCM), because innovation, partnerships and trust are the pillars of global preparedness. #WHS2025

DG HERA is proud to play a role by identifying barriers facing #LGBTIQ+ groups to access vaccines, therapeutics and diagnostics. The EU Medical Countermeasures Strategy reinforces preparedness for health emergencies, to protect all groups vulnerable to specific health threats.

Progress can never be taken for granted. Across 🇪🇺 & beyond, #LGBTIQ+ people face rising hate & fear. When people feel unsafe, they turn to the EU. We must be their lighthouse of hope & sentinel. Today, we launch a new LGBTIQ+ Equality Strategy. To protect, to empower & to act🏳️‍🌈
