Indonesia leads the response to drug-resistant TB: In two years 460+ local health centers were equipped to start treatment & the 6-month BPaL/M regimen was scaled up – from 17% of patients on this new treatment in 2024 to over 80% today. #WorldTBDay

“Strengthening health systems at scale requires sustained investment, smart financing and true partnership,” says @PeterASands, Global Fund Executive Director.

I am pleased to share that @Gavi and the @WorldBank Group have signed a Memorandum of Understanding to strengthen immunisation, primary healthcare and regional vaccine manufacturing. At the core of this partnership is a shared ambition to mobilise at least $2 billion over the next five years, supporting countries as they build stronger and more resilient health systems. My sincere thanks to President Ajay Banga and the World Bank Group for their partnership and shared vision. This marks an important step in creating more resilient health systems and expanding access to life-saving vaccines for millions: bit.ly/3YkJsGp

Today is #WorldAIDSDay.
It’s time to get back on track to end AIDS as a public health threat once and for all.
Working together, we must deliver results at scale and prioritize communities at highest risk for HIV infection and with the least access to services.

Through floodwaters in Bangladesh, health worker Champa saved TB medications as her home collapsed. Later, she diagnosed & treated her neighbor Rekha. With @GlobalFund support, heroes like Champa connect remote communities to care.

Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in Pakistan, yet few have heard of the virus that causes it, or the vaccine that can prevent it.
Now, that's changing with a historic new HPV vaccine that’s set to reach 18 million girls: bit.ly/4gKBSh3
