My thoughts on how we move forward. #publichealth
"We don’t have an economy if we don’t have public health. If this viral pandemic has shown us anything it is that good public health at home and abroad is an investment and not an expense." — @mrvestergaard buff.ly/3cfOeuQ

At @ConferenceMim18, Pedro Alonso, head of the @WHO Global Malaria Program said in 1st session: "Insecticide resistance is an issue in many countries, however pyrethroid LLINs still remain effective. Despite this, approval of PBO LLINs has been given and new tools are needed."
