“Countries need to be put front and centre, to play the leading role. That’s exactly what the #GaviLeap is advocating”: @Pierre_DIMBA, Minister of Health and Public Hygiene, Côte d’Ivoire. At Gavi, we believe that when it comes to how they choose to invest in immunising their populations, governments should be firmly in the driver’s seat. We’re proud to support Côte d’Ivoire’s journey to health sovereignty and sustainability.

IPPC Chair Michael McGovern and Vice Chair Valarie Wafer took the #Rotary26 main stage in Taipei to share the progress we have made and the challenges we face to achieving a polio-free world: https://t.co/2IZ91bimjn
A new study has shown that, thanks to the HPV vaccine, between 2020 and 2024 no women aged 20 to 24 died from cervical cancer in England. These data give renewed hope that cervical cancer could be the first cancer to ever be eliminated, but only if there is equitable access to HPV vaccines.
@Gavi’s HPV programme has already reached ~86 million girls and prevented ~1.4 million future cervical cancer deaths. We must use England’s historic results as a springboard to drive global progress against cervical cancer and safeguard the futures of millions of girls around the world: https://t.co/SDeqKRy600

In Pakistan, health teams discovered families in hard-to-reach communities don’t just need a vaccine. They need a reason to trust the person bringing it. Arriving with nutrition support and maternal care alongside polio drops gave them that reason. #EndPolio

𝐐: Why is regular #handwashing important during an #Ebola outbreak?
𝐀: Handwashing helps reduce the risk of infection by removing viruses that may be present on hands after contact with contaminated surfaces or people. It is one of the simplest and most effective ways to protect individuals, families and health workers during outbreaks.
