In #Ukraine, 99 percent of older adults don't want to evacuate their homes, despite the war. Benedetta Armocida and Beatrice Formenti write about the health risks to elderly people when war, climate issues, and other crises push them out of their homes.

While the @UN General Assembly has recognized older adults as a vulnerable group in crises, traditionally, this population has not been prioritized for humanitarian aid during war.

Opening national borders and providing refuge to Ukrainians must go hand in hand with building sustainable and long-term access to health care for all migrants and ensuring that displaced populations are aware of their rights.

"Since 2014 Ukraine has been facing a humanitarian crisis, over 3.8 million people are in need of emergency health services." 🇪🇺EU member states should consider Ukraine's pre-war health burden to forecast refugees’ health needs.

A timely and appropriate healthcare for #Ukrainian #refugees in all EU receiving countries should be prioritized. The right to a fair and equitable healthcare must always be guaranteed and particularly protected in emergency situations and vulnerabilities https://t.co/kFzw7DGpgu

It is important to recognise the impact of COVID-19 on TB care to mitigate its consequences. TB services have an urgent need to identify novel strategies to ensure the continuum of TB care at the time of the coronavirus pandemic. https://t.co/yOcaR5wquK
