Another paper of our collaboration in DRC and Rwanda @EDCTP3: tracking the evolving mpox clade Ib outbreak. Great team, more work ongoing to try to understand the outbreak @Udahemuka1@1986Bom and many others https://t.co/CH3oQKRass
The Emergency Committee for #mpox met today and advised me that the upsurge of mpox continues to constitute a public health emergency of international concern — I have accepted that advice.
My decision is based on the rising number and continuing geographic spread of cases, operational challenges in the field, and the need to mount and sustain a cohesive response across countries and partners.
I call on the affected countries to scale up their responses and for solidarity from the international community to help us end the outbreaks.
President Kagame at #SpecialMeeting24 Opening plenary:
🎯 Inclusivity means putting people at the center of what we are doing. That means investments in our Human Capital, Education, Health and above all Technology has been a focus for us.
🎯 Rwanda has not been left behind in investing in AI, just as we continue to invest in agriculture to achieve food self sufficiency
🎯 Rwanda came from the dead 30 years ago, and we are now alive and thriving. Looking at how far Rwanda has come should add optimism for what’s possible
🎯 The rest of the world should invest with and in Africa (a major player in the global economy)

I started my career as a #malaria researcher, and I longed for the day that we would have an effective vaccine against this ancient and terrible disease. Today is that day: @WHO is recommending the broad use of the world’s first malaria vaccine. #EndMalaria
