Der aktuelle Entwurf der Bundesregierung zum Krankenhausanpassungsgesetz (KHAG) enthält gravierende Rückschritte, allen voran die Streichung der Leistungsgruppe Infektiologie. Mit dieser Fehlentscheidung schwächt das BMG die Effizienz + Qualität der Versorgung & konterkariert die Ziele der Reform. 🧵

New article in @bmj Global Health with Emily Adrion and Jeff Collin: "Who funds the WHO Foundation? A transparency analysis of donation disclosures over the first 3 years of its operation" gh.bmj.com/content/10/7... @lhgp.bsky.social @uoe-sps.bsky.social

Shocking analysis by @drlauraschmidt.bsky.social & colleagues identifying systemic financial conflicts of interest in medical guideline development - in times when the trust in science is at stake, we can´t afford irregularities like this. www.bmj.com/content/390/...

Now we know that if a study is funded by the meat industry, it is 4 times more likely to conclude that red meat has positive or benign effects on cardiovascular disease risk. NIH should fund nutrition scientists so they can stop working for the food industry. ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S000...

🌍💨 Despite pushback the #WHA78 adopted WHO’s Climate & Health Global Action Plan. It urges integrating health into climate policy, but lacks mention of fossil fuels. Still, a key step forward. ➡️ www.linkedin.com/pulse/health... @medwma.bsky.social @gchalliance.bsky.social @wma-jdn.bsky.social

Air pollution is not just one of the biggest killers on the 🌎, it also cost the global economy trillions. Great discussion with @drmarianeira.bsky.social & @helenclarknz.bsky.social at @cleanairfund.bsky.social #WHA78 side event on the health investment case for clean air. @gchalliance.bsky.social

🌍 Who connects the dots in global health governance at #WHA78? Dozens of side events in Geneva brought together states, UN agencies, philanthropies, activists, and others. But who served as the bridges across all that noise? Here’s a visual story. 👇 🧵1/ #GlobalHealth #WHA78 #IDsky 💊🌐

Impressive Launch of the #BreakFossilFuelInfluence Campaign for fossil-free health communications 📰 by @gchalliance.bsky.social on the sidelines of #WHA78. ⏰️Time for health to take a stand against misinformation & pollution! @influencemap.bsky.social 🖋 climateandhealthalliance.org/what-we-do/m...

@who.int plenary adopts the #PandemicAccord! We now have a new tool in the global health toolbox, and hopefully we will manage to make the best of it! There is a lot of work between now and full implementation, not the least negotiating the #PABS instrument! #GlobalHealth @mcgillghp.bsky.social

Es ist derzeit etwa 1000-mal so wahrscheinlich, in 🇩🇪 durch Hitze anstatt durch Terroranschläge zu sterben. Warum suggerieren Politik und Medien, Migration wäre die größte Bedrohung, statt die Klimakrise? Warum kommt das Wort Hitze im Koalitionsvertrag nicht vor? Mehr im Video: youtu.be/3ZD_zj3MOXY

@escmid.bsky.social how is something like this appropriate in 2025? There is an easy fix: many much smaller conferences can manage a child-friendly environment. Do better! Not only, but also a #GenderEquity consideration! @womeningh.bsky.social @taescmid.bsky.social

Do we need new antibiotics? 💊 What an #ESCMIDGlobal session with @marcmendelson.bsky.social & Evelina Taconelli. Turns out, maybe that is not the right questions to ask, because Abx are just a small part of the big package of interventions we need to fight #AMR @angelahuttner.bsky.social
