More treatments for drug-resistant #tuberculosis would be welcome.👍
However, affordable global access would be critical; let's hope UBC actually applies its oft-hyped but less frequently actioned Global Access Principles to any fruits of this research...

The Democratic Republic of the Congo launched a #mpox vaccination campaign - a critical step in stopping the outbreak & saving lives.

Together with other measures like community engagement, infection prevention, more testing & reporting, this will help end the mpox emergency.

Grrrrr. Social Housing is only fast tracked in direct proportion to the self made tracks from excessive I.V. drug use plus must guzzle booze to legless level. Fluent swearing also essential.

[Freedom Writers Collaborative @FreedomWritersC]

The MAGA majority on SCOTUS could uphold the WA or TX ruling on FDA-approved abortion drug mifepristone. If courts can overturn drug approvals despite science and facts, legal access to any essential medicine is at risk. Support Democrats.

Serious concerns arise over proposed changes to Indonesia’s Patent Act. These amendments could limit access to affordable medicines and harm public health. Civil society calls for transparency and protection of public interests. #AccesstoMedicines
