“Diagnosis is the weakest link in the TB care cascade.” This is a key point where TB meets UHC/PHC. @paimadhu @doctorsoumya

Key discussion this afternoon on the private sector key role to deliver malaria care in both urban and remote areas underserved by formal Healthcare facilities and #next2people

[Pedro L. Alonso @PAlonsoMalaria]

Day 2 of MPAC began with in-depth discussion on new approach to achieve greater #malaria impact in high burden countries. @DrKesete of RBM Partnership highlighted need for country ownership and “home-grown solutions” to fight this disease.

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

Unitaid´s US$ 3.4 million project with @MedsforMalaria is overcoming barriers to availability, quality and supply of #medicines for severe #malaria and malaria prevention. The work will strengthening global availability of several key malaria medicines. https://t.co/KcYegrUPmu

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

Great to join forces with @WHO @MMV & other partners to accelerate access to quality medicines that are affordable, such as this one for severe malaria #AccesstoMedicines https://t.co/eP9pYdZwmL

[SciDev.Net SS Africa @SciDevNetSSA]

By improving access to key severe #malaria medicines and improving case management, the project was able to reduce mortality from untreated severe malaria and save the lives of many children https://t.co/oIIPyph7Gq @Cipla_Global @UNITAID @who_urbanhealth @MalariaNoMore

Great new insight into #DigitalHealth: #HealthSystems of the Future @GHSPJournal that strengthen the delivery of #HealthServices, financing, standards in Lower Income Countries https://t.co/P9JXzXVqT1

51% of the world's #calorieintake from just 3 crops, but not eaten as whole grains anymore, no #fibers, #VitaminB, #phytosterols known to combat #NCDs, loosing our traditional eating habits... https://t.co/mwcQEBUHo2

Early detection and diagnosis a critical link for effective #NCD management https://t.co/QjZHx3L59l

[Harald Nusser @haraldnusser]

#DigitalHealth is likely the most powerful enabler that low- and middle- income communities can use to fight #NCDs and achieve universal health coverage. Read my thoughts on this subject along with @AnnAertsNF from @NovartisFDN. #UHC https://t.co/keNo6mhEyc

[Eric Adam @DrEricAdam]

Great! Let's ensure selected ideas bridge the digital health divide: the digital paradox is that the areas #next2people that have the more to gain from #eHealth have the poorest ICT resources, infrastructures, capacity and capability for successful implementation and uptake...

[Novartis Global Health @NovartisGH]

#SandozHACk - @Sandoz Healthcare Access Challenge is a global competition inviting inspirational #digitalhealth ideas with the potential to complement – or even disrupt – established approaches to #healthcareaccess. Learn more. https://t.co/YEyVBwJAkZ

An excellent read from @IFPMA DG @ThomasCueni dubbed 'Reaching the Remaining Millions at Risk or Suffering from #NCDs' via @diplocourier https://t.co/b6aaDwLUai

[Eric Adam @DrEricAdam]

Fully agree, most countries need to speed up to achieve the #SDGs by 2030 in particular for #NCDs. Digital innovation is one means towards achieving this acceleration. Digital solutions can reach practically everyone, everywhere and in a person-centred manner #next2people

[Harald Nusser @haraldnusser]

The new report from @NovartisFDN, @IntelHealth and @UNBBCom is an insightful read that looks at #DigitalHealth as the most powerful enabler that low- and middle income communities can use to address the growing burden of #NCDs https://t.co/XhGASrlNjg

[The Defeat-NCD Partnership @DefeatNCD]

Two UN high level meetings were held on health matters – with virtually no interaction between the two. But diabetes, cancer and depression have a major impact on tuberculosis. If we treat them in silos, we won’t overcome them. https://t.co/ckfHjDa1p5 https://t.co/ckfHjDa1p5

[The Defeat-NCD Partnership @DefeatNCD]

More than half of all countries will likely fail to hit the UN target of reducing premature deaths from a quartet of chronic diseases by a third before 2030, researchers have said. @TheLancet @Countdown2030 @ImperialSPH https://t.co/sDnSepF1be https://t.co/gBZtgGuRH6

[Eric Adam @DrEricAdam]

Fully agree & let's highlight Type-2 #Diabetes/TB co-morbidity: DM increases 4-7 fold likelihood to get #TB, time to move forward on the Bali declaration https://t.co/apEvNVRYB0 with full support of #next2people as launch partner and #primaryhealthcare actor in South Africa

Greg Perry our Assistant DG inaugurates @NCDAccess event « Given #HLMNCDs & #HLMTB we find synergies between NCDs & TB: they both face health system challenges from supplychain efficiency to improving primary healthcare, from early diagnosis to adherence to treatment & stigma »

[Luan Vo @vnqluan]

Minister of Health of Georgia soaking about establishing islands of elimination through the zero TB initiative!

[Svetlana Axelrod @DrAxelrod_WHO]

#NCDs are the world biggest killers, causing 7 out of every 10 deaths.

We know the solutions that can save nearly 10 million lives by 2025.

The world must act now to prevent avoidable deaths and suffering.
