[1/2] This week, we supported the visit of Hon Dr Stephen Modise @MOHBotswana meeting MPs, scientists and other allies in the fight against malaria. The Minister showed just how important @globalfund + @gavi are + why we need to work together to #ChangeTheStory and save lives.

Listen to Duncan folks ....
Twitter was incredibly helpful to listen and learn from individuals. But it's now impossible to see updates as the algo prioritises clickbait and the list function is basically broken.
BlueSky works, come join us over there.
OMG. Just getting started on Bluesky, and am v v happy and full of nostalgia - like Twitter in the Good Old Days. Useful posts and links, thoughtful people, no firehose of ads, spam or rage. Why not join the X-odus? @duncangreenlse.bsky.social

Malaria science is incredible. If we invest in research and development, and the means to deliver it, we could save 14 million lives by 2040.
Join David Beckham and some incredible malaria advocacates on the #ZeroMalaria experience and then share this video. Thks!
David Beckham joins malaria scientists, health experts, & global leaders to show that teamwork is key in beating malaria and saving lives. 💪 Watch the powerful story unfold. 📖 #ZeroMalaria

#Egypt is officially #MalariaFree, certified by @WHO!
The 2nd African country in 2024 after Cape Verde, Egypt's success is testament to effective vector control strategies, well-trained health professionals and universal health coverage, and strong cross-border partnerships.
Really concerning numbers coming out from RBM at this year's UNGA. We're now at a tipping point on malaria - we find more funding, or we start a process of resurgence that will be deadly.
Important choices for donors and endemic countries - and the only one that makes sense is to give the funding to #endmalaria
New modelling prepared by @MalariaAtlas for @endmalaria and @ALMA_2030 announced at #UNGA79
If funding for malaria falls at the next @GlobalFund replenishment in 2025, we could see 337,000 more deaths between 2027 and 2029.
Leaders must prioritize malaria funding to #EndMalaria. It's #OurOnlyChoice.

I started my career as a #malaria researcher, and I longed for the day that we would have an effective vaccine against this ancient and terrible disease.
Now, @WHO recommends the use of two vaccines, RTS,S and R21, for children living in malaria endemic areas.
Every 2 minutes a child dies from malaria. Vaccines are among the key tools to save more children from deadly mosquito bites.

Newly elected members of the French parliament refusing to shake hands with the far right is extremely satisfying. A particular shout out to the rock paper scissors gag.

Congratulations to Côte d'Ivoire on rolling out the R21 #malaria vaccine! Both RTS,S and R21 are safe & effective vaccines, and they are expected to have high public health impact. Best protection for children will come from integrating these vaccines with other WHO-recommended interventions, tailored to local needs.

Wonderful photo of the first baby to receive new R21 malaria vaccine in Côte d’Ivoire
This week @gavi started rolling out the new vaccine in Africa funded by 🇬🇧 @FCDOGovUK
Vaccine was developed by 🇬🇧 @UniofOxford @JennerInstitute & manufactured by 🇮🇳 @SerumInstIndia 💉🌍
Malaria kills around half a million babies & children under 5 every year. A heartbreaking statistic
Rollout of this new malaria vaccine - developed by 🇬🇧 science & being distributed by @gavi thanks to funding from 🇬🇧 @FCDOGovUK - will help save lives & deliver the #SDGs
🌍💉

South Sudan today launched the malaria vaccine rollout, becoming the second country after Côte d'Ivoire to deploy the R21 vaccine.
Supported by @WHO and partners, over 645,000 doses have been delivered to the country to protect children against the threat of malaria.
Ross Bailey retweeted
Congratulations to South Sudan for introducing #malaria vaccines into its immunisation programme!
We’re proud to work with @unicefssudan, @WHOSouthSudan and other key partners to support @MoHsouthsudan’s efforts to #endmalaria: bit.ly/3W6b5BR

Great insights at our joint briefing today with @TheWilsonCenter and @malarianomoreuk! According to the latest economic report, achieving the SDG for malaria by 2030 could generate $3.9B in additional exports from G7 nations, including the US.
