Corruption ⛔ Economic Development

Corruption hinders economic growth by discouraging foreign & domestic investment.

Especially small businesses find it challenging to overcome the business obstacles due to corruption.

#OnThisDay 40 years ago, #smallpox was made history.

It's the only human disease to be eradicated so far.

A lesson we must take is: when the 🌍 unites behind science and public health measures we can defeat diseases and protect lives and livelihoods.

My husband died on May 1st and his Dr called me less than 2 hours ago & said it was the coronavirus. He was an avid MAGA that believed in the conspiracies promoted by Fox News & others, refused to go to the hospital because he said"the flu is worse".

“More than a month has passed since there was a day with fewer than 1,000 deaths from the virus.”

We need more of a plan than reopening and hoping for the best. https://t.co/NglgQJPNcT

"We can only give advice to countries, but we have no mandate to force countries to follow it. Our advice is based on science and evidence. It is up to each country whether to accept it or reject it." - @DrTedros explains the role of @WHO in the global fight against #COVID19.

“On January 30, we declared the highest level of global emergency on #COVID19. During that time there were only 82 cases outside 🇨🇳. No cases in Latin America, actually. No cases in Africa. Only 10 cases in Europe.”-@DrTedros

"Children may be at relatively low risk from severe disease and death from #COVID19, but can be at high risk from other diseases that can be prevented with vaccines"-@DrTedros

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"This week is #WorldImmunizationWeek.

Immunization is one of the greatest success stories in the history of global health.

More than 20 diseases can be prevented with vaccines"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"Every year, more than 116 million infants are vaccinated, or 86% of all children born globally.

But there are still more than 13 million children around the world who miss out on vaccination.

We know that that number will increase because of #COVID19"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"Already, #polio vaccination campaigns have been put on hold, and in some countries, routine immunization services are being scaled back or shut down.

With the start of the southern hemisphere #flu season, it’s vital that everyone gets their seasonal flu vaccine"-@DrTedros

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"When vaccination coverage goes down, more outbreaks will occur, including of life-threatening diseases like #measles and #polio"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"@gavi has estimated that at least 21 low- and middle-income countries are already reporting vaccine shortages as a result of border closures and disruptions to travel"-@DrTedros #COVID19

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"So far, 14 vaccination campaigns supported by @gavi against polio, measles, cholera, human papillomavirus, yellow fever and meningitis have been postponed, which would have immunized more than 13 million people"-@DrTedros #COVID19

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"The tragic reality is that children will die as a result.

Since 2000, @gavi and partners including WHO have helped vaccinate more than 760 million children in the world’s poorest countries, preventing more than 13 million deaths"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

"@gavi has set an ambitious goal to immunize 300 million more children with 18 vaccines by 2025.

To reach this goal, Gavi will require USD 7.4 billion in its upcoming replenishment"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork
