Most #globalhealth folks have seen examples of systemic racism & the power of ‘old boys clubs’. It takes courage to call it out & even more to shine a light. That’s why if you haven’t read the latest by @yodifiji.bsky.social you should: ayoadealakija.substack.com/p/an-update-...

Thanks to all who have kindly reached out with shock & dismay that there are those who walk and work amongst us who would write such things on email. Now, imagine what they could do behind the veil of a Teams platform…More revelations in next substack. #Isms

Convening shortly @ACTAccelerator partners to respond at a policy level to this new threat. Thanks to the secretariat led by @DrMikeRyan ‘s teams for their prompt action. @mvankerkhove et al. We must #ACTogether to stop outbreaks at community level with local authorities support.

TODAY’s treat! Finally got my hands on @DanielleAlakija ‘s copy of this MUST READ by @seyeabimbola - there are imminent seismic shifts in the world of geopolitics, global health & development. This book is essential reading as we prepare to “walk away from the omela’s”

Today in the @FT my concerns about #H5N1 articulated, clearly demonstrating the hypocrisy & double-standards of the “global” community. Let’s call it what it is! This is a pandemic waiting to happen being hurried along by incompetence. Norway already purchased vaccines. #EQUITY

Walking into a new dawn. Thankful for the lessons and blessings of 2024. My prayer for the world in 2025 is that PEACE & JUSTICE will reign; light overcomes darkness & that our steps would be ordered from on high. #HappyNewYear2025
