Innovation is key to driving progress in the fight to #EndMalaria! 👏

On this #WorldAIDSDay, we honor lives lost to HIV/AIDS, celebrate progress in fighting this epidemic, and recommit to the work ahead.

As millions still lack access to care, we must continue funding programs like PEPFAR and strengthen global efforts to save lives.

[Friends of the Global Fight @theglobalfight]

In a historic first, the @WhiteHouse marked #WorldAIDSDay by displaying the AIDS Memorial Quilt—a powerful tribute to lives lost & the resilience of the #HIV/AIDS community.

"As a mom, I think of the mothers who stitched their pain into a panel... so the world would remember their child,” reflected First Lady Jill Biden.
