Happy to present at ASTMH annual meeting. Come by and visit my poster and get to know if conflict is a good predictor of child health in the #DRC #IamTropMed #TropMed2022

Children need access to high-quality care in all settings to decrease morbidity and mortality. Read this article on Essential Emergency and Critical Care, where I participated as a contributing author for the child section. #childmortality #CriticalCare https://t.co/Di7YaICsFt

Excellent summary by our group leader Tobias Alfvén on the multi-sectorial work and whole system approach needed to end preventable deaths in children in his Editorial in @ActaPaediatrica. https://t.co/WFrYkT9ZeB

In @WHOBulletin we show that conflict alone is a poor predictor for child health in #DRCongo. #Diarrhoea strategies could help decrease subnational #inequities. Sustainable strengthening of the health system is a must to #savelives. #childmortality #SDGs https://t.co/bD9ul5CB8i
