Health inequalities are growing globally. One of the best ways to reduce them is #PrimaryHealthCare. @WHO is calling on ALL countries to allocate 1% more of their gross domestic product to primary health care and deliver their promise on #HealthForAll!pic.twitter.com/2Vly9bqXIK

One-third of the world's people lack access to medicines & other medical products. To deliver on the promise of #HealthForAll, we must fight substandard & falsified medical products & help countries build their capacity to assure the quality of medicines & other products.pic.twitter.com/9m5N02G4Yr

#AntimicrobialResistance is one of the world's most urgent health threats. Unless we step up efforts to #StopDrugResistance & develop new antibiotics, the world is at risk of returning to the pre-antibiotic era, when even routine surgeries were hazardous. http://bit.ly/35UE7bz pic.twitter.com/R6t2zc656m

Infectious diseases like #HIV, #malaria and #tuberculosis will kill ~4 million people this year. With increased investment in health systems and R&D in new tools, we can make this the decade when we end the epidemics of these infectious killers. http://bit.ly/35UE7bz pic.twitter.com/JVh2QcOvS6

The next global pandemic is a question of when, not if. The world spends a lot of money responding to outbreaks, but too little preparing for them. @WHO is calling on all countries to invest urgently in measures to keep people safe when health emergencies strike.pic.twitter.com/jiIfJ2G5ol

Every day, @WHO delivers health services in countries affected by conflict. We'll continue to do that, but ultimately we need political solutions to end conflict, protect #healthworkers from attacks and create the conditions for #HealthForAll. http://bit.ly/35UE7bz  #NotATargetpic.twitter.com/BnWuy7RRc3
