This must be a sick joke.
In what world would it make sense to scale back funding for pandemic preparedness — let alone at a moment like this? https://t.co/faOeXXEpj4
Call on these reps from the State & Foreign Ops subcommittee to cosponsor the #NOVIDAct + increase global HIV funding by $750 million:

Millions of the people around the world will not receive #COVIDvaccines until 2024. We’re calling on @POTUS Biden to create a plan to help everyone, everywhere get vaccinated.
Join the rally TOMORROW, May 5th in Washington, D.C.!

REQUIRED READING ahead of tomorrow's @WTO general council meeting: https://t.co/GbixTCtDgw
Don't be fooled. This third-way proposal from Big Pharma and the @WTO is sadly just the same old way that won't work to end the pandemic! We need a #PeoplesVaccine!
If you want to give the world some delicious pie, you don't try to ship pies around the world, you share the recipe. #TRIPSwaiver allows the recipe for COVID vaccines to be shared. That means billions more vaccine doses can be produced around the globe.
@theC4AA 🥧 metaphor FTW!
1/ #COVAX is falling short, many countries won't have full access to COVID19 vaccines until 2024, and the @POTUS Biden administration is still blocking a proposal from #SouthAfrica + #India to expand access and ramp up global supply.

“What many people don’t realize is that they’ve already paid for the #COVID19vaccine. Much of the research that big pharmaceutical companies claim as the reason for charging such high prices is actually publicly funded.” -Brittany Herrick, MPH @HealthGAP https://t.co/Ql5BdNKkTM
“It’s our responsibility to make sure that in 20 years, we’re not fighting for a #@COVIDvaccine for people in South Africa, Mozambique & Kenya. It’s all it’s the same playbook. It’s just a different year.” -Emily Sanderson https://t.co/dlZn0ltKUy
In 2020 fashion, our website crashed on the eve of #GivingTuesday & #WorldAIDSDay, one of its highest traffic times of the year. Thankfully, we know we can count on you—our allies, co-conspirators, and comrades—even without our site up and running.

I remember that protest. @healthgap and @FightGlobalAIDS helped make it happen. Direct action changed history. Obama was pushed to double the pace of global #HIV treatment scale up. And it happened.
Bold activism matters. It saves lives, then and now @miraseq@jenniferflynn
These actions were the work of @FightGlobalAIDS@HealthGAP, and were part of a brilliant campaign to stop Obama’s funding cuts to @PEPFAR, @GlobalFund.
This moment in history has a special place in my heart. It’s good to know that Obama noticed us and remembers. Activism works.
BREAKING: @JoeBiden has just won the U.S. presidential election. Here's what we think the #POTUS and @KamalaHarris' administration will mean for our work: https://t.co/LrEItsGq4Q
WE'RE HIRING! Are you an activist with a strong track record in global access to medicines policy, advocacy, and campaigning who wants to seize this critical moment in which profound inequities are being exposed & exacerbated by #COVID19?
