I want to work for @PIH. i don't really care what the role is (altho my background is in social media management and i know A Lot about TB). They are doing the kind of hard, thoughtful work that no one else is doing and i need to be doing that too
“It is outrageous that @CepheidNews & @DanaherCorp charge the poorest countries a price 4 times higher than what it costs them to make the #mpox test [...] We urge the companies to put people over profits.” - Stijn Deborggraeve, our Diagnostics Advisor

As @DanaherCorp and @CepheidNews Xpert cartridge for testing mpox gets WHO approval, global health advocates now call for lowering the price of this test to US$5. Price for ALL Xpert test should be $5.
@MSF_access@UnionConference This is so incredible to see! I wish MSF and our fellow #TB partners were sharing these important updates on Bluesky. Most TBFighters have moved over there: https://t.co/d1qPa4SaFT
. @DanaherCorp & @CepheidNews: We took the stage at today’s #TB@UnionConference, representing the 200K+ people asking you to drop the price of GeneXpert medical tests to $5.
Ignorance isn’t bliss when lives are at stake. WAKE UP! It’s #TimeFor5!
To all of my global health & #tuberculosis fighting friends: i'll likely still spend some time over here, but i hope you'll join the @TBFighters community that has moved over to Bluesky. It's a great place to continue our advocacy work
@rachelmillman@firewordsparklr I saw "vote no to prop 1" on the way to my voting place and it scared me so much. Thank you to your stepmom and everyone who worked so hard to make it happen
TB remains a major health issue, affecting 10.8M people in 2023. But global efforts are paying off—since 2000, 79 million lives have been saved. We're making strides but there's more to do to #EndTB for all. Read the full report from @WHO 👉 https://t.co/XJTRK3nEHx
I've done a whole lot of activism with @TBFighters but i know i can do more. The quickest way to change your life is by committing to a bit, so i guess this is that
I have been quietly working towards a goal for a while. I don't like committing to things in a big way bc im afraid a crisis will come up and i wont be able to do the thing but now i feel like the only way i can continue is if i really commit to this goal
I grew up learning about PIH's accompaniement model from @sportswithjohn. Now my job as my mom's caregiver is to walk alongside her and make sure she gets the support she needs, even tho that is an incredibly hard job to do at 27 y/o
