⏱️ Day 45 of the #100DaysMission Ebola Bundibugyo Virus clock. There are still no approved point-of-care diagnostics, therapeutics, or vaccines for Bundibugyo virus, but momentum continues to build. Selected developments since Day 30: 🧵👇

A new op-ed in @healthpolicywatch.bsky.social, co-authored by IPPS STEG co-chair Shingai Machingaidze with Helen Clark, Victor Dzau and Joy Phumaphi, argues UN Member States must act at September's UN High-Level Meeting to establish comprehensive pandemic monitoring. Read below ⬇️ #100DaysMission

📣Updated statement: The ongoing Bundibugyo ebolavirus (BDBV) outbreak in DRC shows pandemic risks can't be fully anticipated, and that preparedness must extend across viral families, including rare and neglected ones. 🧵 1/4

📢 Our latest newsletter is out now! A busy quarter for IPPS, with much of the focus on supporting the response to the ongoing Ebola Bundibugyo virus outbreak, plus advocacy ahead of September's UN High-Level Meeting on pandemic preparedness. Read it 👇 mailchi.mp/ippsecretar...
