Today, the Emergency Committee on #mpox met and advised me that in its view, the situation constitutes a public health emergency of international concern. I have accepted that advice.
@WHO is on the ground, working with the affected countries, and others at risk, through our country and regional offices, as well as with partners including the @AfricaCDC, NGOs, civil society and more.

@MichaelGerardD Every time we play this with our U5s @Ballymac_gaa all the other ages in our Academy stop to watch with envy. It's also a fun game to let parents with smaller siblings on the sidelines play while their big brothers & sisters are on the pitch - hooking them in early!
Proud to share that @WHO co-launched the Competencies for #OneHealth Field Epidemiology Framework #COHFE with @FAO & @WOAH
