Thank you David Cameron and Rt Hon Andrew Mitchell MP for leading Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office to support access to medicines through MedAccess. With capital from British International Investment this funding will translate directly into affordable treatments for malaria, HIV, and TB

🦟 Back in 2021, the RTS,S #malaria vaccine faced a halt in manufacturing. An agreement between MedAccess, @Gavi & GSK paved the way for continued production.

Since then, over 2M children have been vaccinated.

Today is #WorldMalariaDay .

Thanks to UK-India collaboration the world now has two malaria vaccines.

But there's still more we can do.

We’re supporting MedAccess to make malaria prevention tools like nets more available and affordable to people in lower income countries.

Great to join @Unitaid for a discussion yesterday on: 'Manufacturing Life-Saving and Sustainable Health Products in Africa – What’s the Role of the UK?'

Kaodili Udeh, Health Markets Executive, discussed financing barriers manufacturers face & the role of partners like MedAccess.

Addressing resistance is high on the agenda of malaria control and eradication efforts. This #WorldMalariaDay , we commit to exploring innovative products in this area.

Immunization has saved over six lives every minute of every day for the last 50 years. It is one of humanity’s greatest achievements.

But there is still work to do. Nobody should suffer from a disease we have the tools to prevent.

It’s #HumanlyPossible . #WorldImmunizationWeek

The key to fighting malaria is innovating to stay ahead of the disease. 

Ahead of #WorldMalariaDay , we’re celebrating life-saving innovations, like the G2 interceptor nets. Over three years, nets like these prevented 13 million cases of malaria.

Why is #HIV self-testing important?

🔺People at high risk of HIV are encouraged to test frequently.
🔺But often face stigma when seeking an HIV test at a clinic.
🔺Self-tests mean people can test & read results in private.
