We don’t need to tell you that pollution is bad.  But did you know it plays a role in spreading #AMR? On the heels of #COP30, the spotlight is on the environmental factors amplifying the AMR threat—and microplastic pollution is one of them. Learn more at

Thank you, United States of America, for your US$4.6 billion pledge to the @GlobalFund’s Eighth Replenishment – powerful leadership to scale up impact and fight AIDS, TB and malaria. Together, we will #StopAtNothing to defeat deadly infectious diseases and #SaveLives.

#WorldChildrensDay reminds us that every child deserves safety, health, and hope. Children make up 29% of the world’s population, but 40% of all forcibly displaced people—and immunization is one of the most powerful ways to protect them. Learn more: https://t.co/RJ7KAAugDp

After nearly three decades, Canada has lost its measles elimination status, according to @pahowho. This setback also means the entire Americas region—once declared measles-free—has lost that designation. The cause? A year-long outbreak fueled by declining immunization coverage

Cervical cancer takes the life of one woman every 90 seconds. The HPV vaccine is our strongest defense, but millions still lack access. Incorporating HPV vaccines into routine immunization is crucial to a cervical cancer-free world and giving every girl a shot at life.

It's World #CervicalCancer Elimination Day Cervical cancer could be the first cancer EVER in the world to be eliminated, if: 9️⃣0️⃣% of girls are vaccinated 7️⃣0️⃣% of women are screened 9️⃣0️⃣% of women with cervical cancer receive treatment https://t.co/Jw95ItBNbb

Strategic investment in Ethiopia keeps diseases from spreading, stabilizes key regions, and more. When America leads, we prevent costly crises and keep threats from reaching our shores. Fiscal responsibility means funding what works. Let's not lose our momentum. @beatmalaria

Thanks to vaccines, under-five pneumonia deaths have nearly halved since 2009—that's 1.2 million lives saved. But progress is fragile, especially in the face of funding cuts. This #WorldPneumoniaDay, tell Congress to support global immunization at https://t.co/zlq98qmrTQ.

On the outskirts of Addis Ababa, Habtamu and his team regularly traverse muddy, mountainous roads to reach more than 6,000 residents with health care. Ethiopia is taking the lead in protecting its most vulnerable. With our help, they can ensure every child is reached.

Cholera is spreading across 32 countries, killing thousands. Vaccines exist, but demand outpaces supply. Zambia has taken action by building a cholera vaccine plant—a step toward regional self-sufficiency. Cholera can be stopped if we commit. For more: https://t.co/yySN5v4MBi

Vaccines keep surprising us. A @UF study found cancer patients who got an mRNA COVID vaccine near the start of immunotherapy lived almost twice as long. MRNA tech may be paving the way for a universal cancer vaccine.

Malaria now poses a greater threat than HIV or TB—funding shortfalls could lead to nearly 1M additional deaths by 2030. As @GlobalFund prepares for its replenishment, the message is clear: "If we fail to act, malaria could steal Africa's children—and $83 billion of our future."

The countdown to the official end of an Ebola outbreak in the DRC has begun. Despite the area’s fragile health systems, officials responded fast with the help of WHO coordination—a testament to the power of maximizing limited vaccine supplies for effective outbreak response.

From Nuakata Island to Milne Bay province, two rounds of polio vaccination have brought protection to children across Papua New Guinea. Despite the challenges of reaching remote islands, health workers, volunteers & parents are ensuring no child is left behind. Let’s end polio!

Ahead of #WorldPolioDay, we're reminded: Vaccines are one of humanity's most remarkable achievements. Experts explain the progress that vaccines have made possible: https://t.co/VeoaE5mnqg
