My latest article in @ProSyn highlights the groundbreaking development of a new, affordable malaria vaccine, R21. This vaccine, costing only $2-$4 per dose, has the potential to save millions of lives, especially in Africa where malaria is most prevalent. A game-changer in global health, R21 proves that great strides in medicine can be both effective and economical.

I'm excited to share a unique piece of my personal history: my vintage 1952 Greatcoat, acquired during my time at Oxford in 1969. Not just a garment, but part of my academic journey. Sized for those 5'10" to 6'0", with a chest size of 42 to 44 inches, it features a distinctive mix of brass and one original black button. I'm auctioning this piece until December 17 at midnight US ET, with all proceeds supporting The @LifeYouCanSave. Join the auction and own a part of my history while contributing to a great cause.

New from me:

“How economists got Africa’s AIDS epidemic wrong”

In the '00s, cost-effectiveness analysis said sending HIV drugs to low-income countries was a bad use of money--drugs that ended up saving millions of lives. Have we learned our lesson?

@EAheadlines I was working at UNICEF back in 2010 when people started calling us wanting to increase their monthly donations after having read this new book by Peter Singer called The Life You Can Save 📚❤️
