GREAT OPPORTUNITY to apply to join @FCDOGovUK as a Health Adviser. Please consider applying to UK-Based roles (https://t.co/Hj5be2WTTw), Overseas-Based roles (https://t.co/aOFhTXWkvf) or ideally both! I have loved my time as a #Health Adviser, and would strongly recommend this!

[Preventing Pandemics at the Source @PreventingPand]

To #PreventPandemics, we need to take a #OneHealth approach by mitigating zoonotic outbreaks & spillover from animals to humans.

Including One Health in the #PandemicAgreement's Article 4 would provide communities with key tools to prevent disease outbreaks. #INB9
