I thank #WHA76 delegates for endorsing a resolution to strengthen diagnostics capacity globally and to improve access to diagnostic services.
Diagnostics enable the precise identification of diseases, allowing the right treatments to start sooner, for better health outcomes.

The most exciting part of #WHA76 is the #diagnostics resolution passing! It emphasizes the need for local production capacity of diagnostics in #lmics as a critical enabler of #UHC & insists on affordability for #equity & #access!! Well done advocates 👏🏾
