Today we lost a shining light in East Africa - a true professional dedicated to advancing public health and the pursuit of evidence to inform action; a friend and colleague to many, in Uganda and around the world. Where Dr Anthony Mbonye led, may other future scientists follow

[Ministry of Health- Uganda @MinofHealthUG]

The management of @MinofHealthUG has learnt w/deep sorrow of the demise of Prof. Anthony K Mbonye,former Ag.Director General Health Services.
Prof.Mbonye’s immense contribution to the health sector will never be forgotten.May his legacy live on.
May his soul rest in eternal peace

🇬🇧💉🇺🇸 The vast majority of people in the UK and US would donate their COVID-19 vaccine booster dose to poorer countries if a test showed they didn’t need it.

Opinion: Once a pandemic stops being an acute threat to life in high-income countries, the urgency drops, the focus shifts, and resource flows dwindle. https://t.co/BdVF48Wre8

Huge progress should be applauded but political will & sustained funding will be the key drivers to overcome #malaria this generation @WHO #WorldMalariaReport

With science, funding and political will, we can defeat malaria. Lets make this a reality.

[Azra Ghani @azraghani]

But this will only be possible if the UK continues its commitment made at the Commonwealth Heads of Group meeting 2018 to halve malaria by 2023. Lets not waste the investment and progress that has been made - we can do this.

[Azra Ghani @azraghani]

The UK government have been critical in supporting malaria research; in the same way that science has provided the answer to COVID, it can help to eliminate the unnecessary childhood deaths from malaria.

[London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine @LSHTM]

Is #malaria a risk factor for #COVID19?

On #WorldMosquitoDay, we're delighted to announce £1.1 million funding from @gatesfoundation to find out.

Effective malaria control would then help to control the virus - that's a win-win.

Malaria is important cause of preventable childhood deaths in Africa. Effective drugs are available, but starting treatment late is a problem #CovidCollateral
