"We need to get greater recognition of the crucial role that #testing plays in pandemic response. We need to drive #diagnostics up the agenda in terms of visibility and funding." - @PeterASands, @GlobalFund #DiagnosticsCommission #DiagnosisForAll @DiagnosticsCom

DYK that even when new #antibiotics are approved, they rarely target priority #drugresistant bacteria and are only registered for use in a small number of countries? Find out how you can support our life-saving work right here: resist-resistance.gardp.org/ #ResistResistance

#COVID19 interventions in resource-limited settings need to be affordable, available, and adapted to the health care systems and the populations they are serving. #COVID19crc @TheLancet bit.ly/2UChxlj

Replying to @MoHFW_INDIA
@MoHFW_INDIA @ICMRDELHI Need your intervention to control prices for Rapid Kits. Rs. 200-300 kits are now costing Rs 1000 - pls look into this else the benefit of using Rapid Kits to quickly test millions of citizens at scale becomes economically impossible. @StartupsvsCovid

Lack of massive testing is where we will fail in ending this outbreak. What are we waiting for? #COVID #coronavirusindia

Just to re-up, diagnostic capacity is not a new issue. It's not just a COVID problem; it's a TB, antibiotic resistance, malaria, HIV, sepsis, cold problem forbes.com/sites/madhukarpai… @paimadhu

"If you look at the Coronavirus #COVIDー19 conversation now, containment without providing care doesn’t work well. If you're not concerned with treatment, this is a colonial recipe for mistrust." -Paul Farmer Co-founder of Partners in Health, and Duke Trustee @DukeGHI @DukeU

At the very onset of behavioural research for #AntibioticResistance stewardship we should perhaps curate stories of what hasn’t worked. Including the interventional methodology and failure nodes. This seems like a good step in that direction.
Last year @Wellcome_AMR had a go at a project to tackle overuse and misuse of #antibiotics in India and Kenya. It didn't work out the way we hoped... Here are 5 things we learned – hope also useful to others using #BehaviouralInsights to create change 👇 wellcome.ac.uk/news/5-things…

This is a great loss to nation! Dr. M K Bhan was one of the greatest inspirations to us. Our prayers are with his family. May he rest in peace.
Dr. M. K. Bhan passed away a short while ago. A great pediatrician and humanist, foremost. A clinician scientist who pioneered a rotavirus vaccine, excellent science administrator, leader of complex missions in health and nutrition, a dear friend. Too sudden and too soon.

We are deeply saddened to learn the news that Dr. Peter Salama, epidemiologist and @WHO's Executive Director of the Division of Universal Health Coverage, has passed. Our thoughts are with his family and our friends and partners at WHO at this time.

Sepsis is a leading cause of death in children under 5 & threatens achievement of SDG3. A new Lancet report shows sepsis deaths twice as high as previously thought. #GARDP is working with partners to develop new & improved treatments for neonatal sepsis: bit.ly/2FUefls

Presenting now #CCR20—First #GBDStudy estimates of #sepsis incident cases (49 million in 2017) & mortality (11 million in 2017) are twice that thought previously; highlighting need for greater prevention and treatment especially in sub-Saharan Africa @IHME hubs.ly/H0mBnhv0
