Research & advocacy in social sciences and global health things. RTs ≠ endorsements, just what I find interesting.

#HIV superstar researcher @LindaGailBekker from @DTHF_SA: With 150,000 new HIV infections in children last year, the urgency to act is clear. #AIDS2024 highlights the need for bNAbs in pediatric HIV prevention. Thank you Prof. Bekker for your leadership and vision!

[Unitaid @UNITAID]

Philister Adhiambo from @KEMRI_Kenya at #AIDS2024: "Community engagement must start from the onset. We need to understand their needs and preferences to shape product development." Co-creation is the way forward!

“Wednesday, May 15, half past five in the afternoon, will go down in history as the moment when the radical right definitively became the greatest power factor in Dutch politics”, @nrc.

Great to be part of this event and feel the energy for raising awareness (if you look very closely you can see the top of my head behind Lord Herbert 😆)

[Results UK @resultsuk]

Raising awareness and demanding action ahead of World TB Day! 💪

Results UK and @APPGTB held a reception this week in @UKParliament to amplify efforts to eradicate TB around the world and urge greater commitment from the UK to put an end to this disease 🌍🤝

@d_boeselager As someone who would have directly benefited from these improvements, I’m extremely disappointed. Thank you for your hard work nevertheless

[Jacob Osborne @jacobcosborne]

Glad to see even more literature questioning the primacy of the information-deficit model of #vaccinehesitancy. There is so much more to be said. https://t.co/CYqw6SjLXt

The chokehold the right has on this country is wild. Why is the left so ineffective at appealing to voters?

Wilders: "Timmermans, u krijgt wachtgeld. Deze vrouw krijgt een uitkering. Zij kan niet wachten. U bent het contact met de werkelijkheid totaal verloren."

"What never left me was grief. Grief for the America that once was, and grief for the bloodthirsty America being born. And later, when I was older and wiser, grief at the realization that it was the same country all along." https://t.co/TPCdw9Abi0

Stemming from work with the always wonderful colleagues from 🇺🇦 Public Health Center as part of @SonarGlobalEU, our newest publication on #vaccine uptake among Ukrainian parents:

"A successful vaccine would dramatically shift the outlook for ending AIDS, and the search for an HIV vaccine should remain a priority."

[UNAIDS Global @UNAIDS]

Our new report ‘The Path that Ends AIDS' released today shows that there is a clear path to #endAIDSby2030. This path will also help prepare for & tackle future pandemics and advance progress towards achieving the #GlobalGoals

@GovernorTomWolf disappointing to leave this as a legacy, further stigmatizing and criminalizing people living with #HIV https://t.co/YLHpf5eSH8

Another “public health expert” with an absolutely hideous Hot Take™️

[Michael Olesen 💉😷🇺🇸🇺🇦 @maolesen]

Some perspective for those who still don't get it: If I were forced to be infected by either HIV or COVID, I would choose HIV without hesitation.

[Jacob Osborne @jacobcosborne]

Unpopular opinion, I guess, but I agree. I was totally affected by this action. Puts something thought to be sacred under threat, which is our reality re: climate change

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

OK, hear me out, this was actually a visionary and inspired action.

[Jacob Osborne @jacobcosborne]

@_Eric_Reinhart Undoubtedly, but would you say that achieving zero-Covid is still possible? If not, what would the end of the pandemic look like?

[Jacob Osborne @jacobcosborne]

I'm still wondering when the human element of public health will enter into the COVID conversation... Disappointing to see "science" still so narrowly defined at this point in the pandemic.

[Jacob Osborne @jacobcosborne]

Interesting to keep in mind. Does Putin care enough about his constituency to respond to broad economic sanctions that hurt everyday Russians the most?

[Thea Hilhorst @hilhorst_thea]

France now moved from targeted sanctions to aim destroying the entire Russian economy. May I remind that International Humanitarian Law (#IHL) aims to avoid civilian casualties. Let’s not consider starvation as a weapon of war!
