WHO Member Countries Agree to Pandemic Treaty The World Health Organization finally reached a compromise on a pandemic treaty after three years of talks. The United States withdrew from negotiations after President Trump took office.

Fascinating to see the world advance a pandemic treaty without the US.

Equity measures like guaranteeing countries that share data access to the resulting tests & vaccines, might not have move fwd w/🇺🇸there

Supreme Court Rejects Trump’s Bid to Freeze Foreign Aid The move came after Chief Justice Roberts temporarily paused a trial judge’s order requiring the administration to release more than $1.5 billion.

Some really good news during these extremely overwhelming times. Kudos to all US based organisations @publiccitizen.bsky.social @hivpxresearch.bsky.social who have made this possible! www.nytimes.com/2025/03/05/u...

I think @stephanienolen.bsky.social has just made the most impassioned, objective, and important defense of USAID health investments I've yet to hear. I do challenge Michael Crowley's assumption that "most Americans don't support foreign aid" what do others think? podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/t...

Bölët Mouna Inside Guinea's quest to eliminate sleeping sickness

Some good #globalhealth news is needed. Thankfully the dedicated health workers of Guina have delivered one for us today. @who.int announced Guinea has eliminated #sleepingsickness as a public health threat! Very proud to have taken part in telling this story stories.dndi.org/boletmouna/ #NTDs

Yes great point! The language felt insensitive to me, but I could be overly sensitive!

Hi everyone! Its amazing to connect with so many #globalhealth advocates . I'm curious what y'all think about this (good) article from @nytimes.com. It felt off to talk about ebola, dengue as just "strange viruses" that don't have a "big effect" in the US? Are we forgetting other countries here?

Thank you so much for including our sleeping sickness film! Have you seen our newest release on dengue filmed in Sri Lanka, Brazil, and Thailand? Would love your views! youtu.be/imS6SpGjPAE?...
