"[I]t always made me unhappy that people don’t understand fully, I don’t think, the international role that HHS plays, and it is so essential to the safety and security and resilience of the United States."

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Equity, security, and technology are all critical levers in #healthdiplomacy that @HHSGov is uniquely positioned to articulate for Americans and the world. Last week, I had a wide-ranging chat with @CSISHealth on how global efforts today save us tomorrow.

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Thrilled to cap off an incredible year - and personal tenure - with the release of our updated @HHSGov global strategy. It reflects vast efforts by HHS agencies, from public health and disease prevention to healthcare and other direct services, for broad reach and real impact.

[Office of Global Affairs, HHS @HHS_Global]

The 2024 HHS Global Health Strategy is here! It prioritizes equity, innovation, and cooperation to tackle global health challenges like pandemics, NCDs, and digital health. Together, we can build a healthier, more equitable world. Learn more: https://t.co/QJVxaJn0Xq

Thank you for the opportunity to offer some reflections on our @HHS_Global journey these past 4 years. It's really the shared result of #globalhealth security over decades, a legacy on which I hope we all continue to build.

Last week we hosted “Global Equity in Access to Pandemic Response Tools,” the latest in our semiannual symposium series. A full recording is now available here: https://t.co/Ftss352NCC

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Live from #G20Brazil ministerial, @HHSGov is sharing our commitment to climate, equity, and innovation as critical drivers of progress in #globalhealth. We also reiterated our strong track record of funding and partnerships that facilitate coordinated action and access worldwide.

[Office of Global Affairs, HHS @HHS_Global]

The #NAPAHPI marks a new milestone in regional health security! Thanks to the efforts of @HHSGov, @StateDept, @DHSgov, @USDA, and our partners in Mexico and Canada for making it happen.

ICYMI, #globalhealth was discussed by G7 leaders last week and focused on frontier issues like global aging, ethical AI, long COVID, and AMR. Our work must continue evolving with global trends to meet global needs.

Grateful for the actions of @nsanzimanasabin and @RwandaHealth to #StopMarburg in coordination with @AfricaCDC and @WHOAFRO. And glad that @HHSGov could donate critical treatments and vaccines for local clinical trials that protect frontline health workers. A model partnership 🤝🏾

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Wrapping up a convening of health leaders from across the Americas @pahowho where we discussed progress toward #UHC and #globalhealth equity, in addition to the spectrum of infectious and noncommunicable diseases. I am proud our region is a model for all @WHO member states. #CD61

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

From antimicrobial resistance and climate adaptation to noncommunicable diseases and reproductive health, all these topics were on the table at this year's #UNGA79. But most important was the opportunity to reassert U.S. support for multilateralism and international cooperation.

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

We understand at our highest levels that health emergencies require urgent action. That's why we've come together with @AfricaCDC @WHOAFRO & other partners on the current #Mpox response, calling for $1B and pledging 1M vaccines. Thank you, @POTUS! #UNGA79

https://t.co/OtTv6Qv1RO

[Office of Global Affairs, HHS @HHS_Global]

Yesterday, 50,000 #mpox vaccines from @HHSGov arrived in Democratic Republic of Congo. This represents a broader effort working across our expert agencies, @ASPRgov @CDCgov @US_FDA @NIH, to ensure a fulsome regional response alongside @AfricaCDC and @WHO. https://t.co/pnV0pxGxSA

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

In the spirit of starting a conversation and changing the narrative, let's talk about how this is personal for many of us. Mental health crises can affect anyone amongst our families, friends, colleagues, or communities. Speaking up fights stigma and saves lives worldwide.

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

Today, on #WorldSuicidePreventionDay, we acknowledge that suicide is a major public health challenge.

We remain committed to transforming our behavioral health system & reducing rates of suicide across the country.

To those who are struggling: we hear you & we are here to help.

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Kudos to 🇵🇪 for hosting robust discussions on #globalhealth priorities across @APEC. We continue to build on multisector commitments in access to care, highlighting mental health and gender equity as well as ties to climate change. Making real progress...

It's the 30th anniversary of the International Conference on Population & Development!

We'll continue to champion sexual and reproductive health and rights.

These are not only women’s issues—they are core to some of the most fundamental & important choices for any human being.

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

An incredible #WHA77, capped by critical updates to the global health security architecture that promote transparency, improve equity, and protect sovereignty while saving lives in the U.S. and around the world. Kudos @WHO member states on a job well done!
https://t.co/GLvOU12BzP

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

This is great news. With thanks to the more than 45 member states who signed on to support our effort, we now have a path toward updating critical protocols and practices that protect the world from another pandemic. It's not the only solution but a critical one to pursue. #EB150

[Assistant Secretary Loyce Pace @HHS_ASGA]

Pleased to meet Health & Welfare Minister Chiu Tai-Yuan in Geneva. New & existing threats to global health demand broad int'l cooperation. Through its exceptional capabilities, expertise, & resources, #TaiwanCanHelp the @WHO live up to its commitment to #HealthForAll. #WHA77

[Secretary Xavier Becerra @SecBecerra]

During #WHA77, we discussed a big issue: Sexual & Reproductive Health & Rights. We believe that to build an equitable & inclusive world, we must ensure these rights.

Everyone should be able to be who they are & access the care they need, without facing stigma or discrimination.
