"The scale of death in Sudan is likely far worse than imagined & the complete disregard for humanitarian law by SAF & RSF is outrageous," said Chair @SenatorCardin. "The @UN Security Council must act decisively to protect civilians, deliver aid & hold war criminals accountable."

The findings of the @LSHTM report on the Sudan conflict are shocking. Mortality rates in Khartoum are up 50% since the conflict began. The warring parties must end the needless suffering now. lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/news/…

‍Internally displaced people (IDP) camps like those in Somaliland, face high risks of acute respiratory infection transmission due to crowded living conditions and close physical contact among residents. These conditions potentially present a perfect storm of risk factors for infection🦠! 📘➡️ sciencedirect.com/science/ar… #pneumonia #humanitarian settings.#WorldPneumoniaDay2024

Pneumococcus mainly affects the young & elderly but factors like over overcrowding & malnutrition in displaced populations can make things worse. @KevinvZandvoort thinks we can reimagine Pneumococcal conjugate vaccines to be more effective than before. 📰lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/exper… #PneumoniaAwareness #vaccineswork #WorldPneumoniaDay
