#Egypt is delivering one of the most ambitious health reform programmes in the Eastern Mediterranean Region.
It is the first African country to reach WHO Maturity Level 3 for regulating medicines & vaccines as a producing country; the first in the @WHOEMRO Region to implement ICD 11 across both primary health care and hospital settings; and continues to provide health services to displaced and migrant communities.
As global health aid shrinks, sustaining this momentum matters more than ever. Continued investment and strong partnerships and support are essential to protect and build on these gains.
@WHO remains committed to supporting Egypt's health priorities and to working alongside our partners to ensure that every investment in health delivers better outcomes for its people.

Today is #WorldNoTobaccoDay 🚭
Tobacco and nicotine companies deliberately design their products to hook you.
Sugars, flavours, & omacooling agents all mask the harshness of nicotine so you inhale more,get addicted faster.
But the grip of addiction can be broken. #TobaccoExposed
في يوم #عرفة، نجحت السلطات المحلية في المملكة العربية السعودية في تقديم الخدمات الصحية والتوعوية إلى الحجاج هذا العام في جميع مواقعهم.
وكان هناك اهتمام خاص بالوقاية من الإجهاد الحراري والأمراض المرتبطة بالحرارة بسبب ارتفاع درجات الحرارة في النهار. فكانت السلطات توزع توزيع مياه الشرب والمظلات الواقية، مع تقديم النصائح إلى الحجاج بانتظام بتجنب التعرض المباشر لأشعة الشمس وأخذ قسط كاف من الراحة.
وكانت المستشفيات والمرافق الصحية مجهزة تجهيزًا كاملًا ومستعدة لاستقبال جميع حالات الإجهاد الحراري وضربات الشمس والتدبير العلاجي لها.
وتعمل فرق المكتب الإقليمي لمنظمة الصحة العالمية لشرق المتوسط@WHOEMRO على أرض الواقع طوال موسم #الحج لمتابعة مختلف تدابير الصحة العامة وتقديم الدعم إلى السلطات السعودية عند الحاجة.

Leaving #WHA79 with renewed conviction that multilateralism and collective action are the best medicine against conflict, fragmentation and financial strain.
This World Health Assembly reinforced global commitment to protect civilians and safeguard health systems; renewed momentum towards ending polio, a goal now closer than ever; strengthened focus on emergency preparedness, response and resilience; and advanced reform of the global health architecture through the UN80 Initiative.
Through impactful engagements with Member States, partners, academia, civil society and global health leaders, we advanced shared priorities for the Eastern Mediterranean Region and beyond, from sustainable financing and workforce development to equitable access to medicines, vaccines and stronger health systems.
The work ahead remains immense, but so does our shared responsibility to build a healthier, safer and more equitable future for all.

As pilgrims from around the world gather at Mount Arafat, southeast of Makkah 🕋 in #SaudiArabia 🇸🇦, on their sacred journey of #Hajj1447AH, @WHO teams are on the ground alongside Saudi authorities to provide support where needed and to work closely to monitor the health situation.
#Hajj is a profound time of reflection, one that embodies the shared human values of respect, compassion and peace. @WHO reaffirms its commitment to advancing these values, recognizing health as a powerful bridge to peace, dignity and well-being for all.
حج مبرور وذنب مغفور وكل علم وانتم بخير.

At #WHA79, I was pleased to speak at the side event “From Policy to Practice: A National Model for Global Resilience Supply Chains.”
Recent crises have shown that resilient health systems depend on resilient supply chains. Ensuring uninterrupted access to medicines, vaccines, diagnostics and other essential health products is a strategic public health imperative, particularly across the Eastern Mediterranean Region.
I thank the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 🇸🇦 and @nupco for convening this timely dialogue and for sharing Saudi Arabia’s experience in translating policy into practice through strong governance, digital innovation, integrated procurement and logistics systems, and whole-of-government coordination to strengthen supply chain resilience and preparedness.
My update on the #Ebola outbreak in the #DRC and #Uganda to the #WHA79 delegates ⬇️
This outbreak, alongside the hantavirus one, shows why international threats need an international response, why the world needs the International Health Regulations, and why it needs @WHO.
At #WHA79, I addressed a defining question for our time: can global health still make progress amid rupture?
My answer is YES, but only through honest reform, stronger coherence, sustainable financing and health priorities that remain country-led, with international support aligned to national plans rather than donor preferences.

At #WHA79, I was pleased to join the side event on “Healthy Longevity as a Life-Course Investment Strategy,” hosted by the State of Qatar 🇶🇦 in partnership with @WISHQatar, @QF and co-sponsored by Finland 🇫🇮, Japan 🇯🇵, Thailand 🇹🇭, @WFPHA_FMASP, @IFAgeing and the World Organization of Family Doctors (WONCA).
Healthy ageing is about adding life to years, not only years to life; ensuring dignity, independence and opportunity. I emphasized the need to strengthen primary health care, prevention and person-centred care across the life course, while harnessing digital innovation and whole-of-society action to ensure healthy longevity for all.
Peace, equity and social inclusion must remain at the heart of this agenda.
