At this desperate time, with such unbearable suffering and grief, WHO/Europe echoes this urgent call.
✅All hostages to be released immediately.
✅All civilians to be protected.
✅All health care workers and facilities to be safeguarded.
Humanity to prevail. Everywhere.
So many successes at our just-concluded WHO/Europe Regional Committee.
Our roadmap to combat antimicrobial resistance was endorsed yesterday by Member States with overwhelming support.
With #RC73Astana behind us the hard work begins to implement! ⬇️

#Influenza & #COVID19 can have serious consequences for people with underlying health conditions.
If an influenza vaccine & COVID-19 booster are offered to you, why not benefit from them?
#VaccinesWork #VaccinesSaveLives
Preparedness 2.0 should include strong measures for #mentalhealth , for health #inequalities and for psycho-social ones. Behavioural and cultural insights #BCIs also need to be central to preparedness packages.

The #AMR crisis is not just patiently knocking at our back garden gate, it's banging on our front door threatening to break in.
Tackling it is no longer someone's else's business. It's our shared responsibility to stop this not so silent enemy!

Live NOW: Just as we celebrate the adoption of the historic resolution on #healthworkforce at #RC73ASTANA , together with Hans Kluge Tomas Zapata we explain in The Lancet why the workforce crisis is 5 crises at once.
And how, together, we can fix it

Warm congratulations to Danilo Lo Fo Wong, Robb Butler, and the entire WHO/Europe #AMR team on the adoption of the AMR Roadmap at #RC73Astana !
It only stays a silent pandemic if we allow it to remain silent.
📢New #AMR Roadmap endorsed by #RC73Astana !
Thanks to 30 countries and Milka Sokolović for your supportive statements.
We have to work together to make some noise and raise the ambition.
It was a distinct pleasure to present a joint statement on WHO/Europe Roadmap on #antimicrobialresistance on behalf of @epha_eu, its members, and other NSA actors - those in attendance of #RC73Astana , and those who stayed at home, but supported our calls for action.

Major step forward with the adoption of the Action Plan for refugee and migrant health:
✅ For better migration policies
✅ To harness opportunities of migration to make health systems more resilient
✅ Ensuring health for all, no matter where you come from
