Humanitarian and health workers must be protected and allowed to perform their lifesaving work unimpeded. Medical missions to transfer sick patients for urgent care and deliver supplies to overwhelmed hospitals should be facilitated. International Humanitarian Law must be upheld.

I am beyond touched to accept the #CPHIA2023 Lifetime Achievement in Public Health Award with a mixture of pride and humility, on behalf of all my colleagues at @WHO, who work every day, sometimes in difficult and dangerous situations, to protect and promote the health of the world’s people.

My deepest thanks to my brother @JeanKaseya2, President @HHichilema and Prime Minister @comradesaara for this great honour.

Today in London UNAIDS launched their report ahead of World AIDS Day on community leadership - for diagnostics, we know that without strong community leadership the pipeline of promising diagnostic tests for diseases affecting populations like TB won’t be realized
