@who.int is appalled by the latest evacuation order, demanding 1 million people to move from Gaza City to a “humanitarian zone” in the south.

To civilians: WHO and partners remain in Gaza City.

To the intl. community: Act.

This catastrophe is human-made, & the responsibility rests with us all.

Francesca Albanese es una de las voces públicas + lúcidas y valientes de nuestro tiempo. Su denuncia del #genocidio en #Palestina se fundamenta en pruebas y no esconde ninguna de las ramificaciones políticas y económicas de este crimen contra la humanidad.

How did Spain come to be one of the few nations holding firm on aid spending? | Ana Carbajosa By refusing to slash funding to poorer nations, Spain became an outlier in the new world disorder. Next week it hosts a UN summit in Seville to prove it

Hay muchas razones para estar orgullosxs de ser españoles. Esta que cuenta @anacarbajosa.bsky.social en @theguardian.com es una de mis preferidas: La ayuda al desarrollo convierte a España en un "caso atípico en el nuevo desorden mundial".

Analysis: Pride and Prejudice: Mexico’s flag becomes a flashpoint — again — The Mexico Brief. by Arturo Sarukhán (Ambassador of Mexico to the United States, 2007 - 2013) This was a domestic clash waiting to happen, largely concocted in the Oval Office but potentially exacerbated in Mexico ...

NIH grant cancellations makes the world less safer. Without the contributions of South Africa the global response to COVID-19 would have been worse.

Need global contingency measures for poor/selfish political decisions by the US.

La disolución de USAID podría provocar 14 millones de muertes adicionales de aquí a 2030 Del total de muertes, 4,5 millones serían niños, según un estudio del instituto ISGlobal, en el que han colaborado investigadores de Brasil, Mozambique y Estados Unidos

Los recortes en la ayuda de los EEUU, GB y otros donantes quedan enterrados por el ruido. Sin embargo, sus consecuencias se cuentan por MILLONES de vidas perdidas, la mayoría niños. Lo cuenta @elpais.com a partir de un reciente estudio de @isglobal.org. elpais.com/planeta-futu...

El conflicto y la limpieza étnica que el mundo olvidó Armenia no solo tendrá que recordar, llorar y honrar a los suyos asesinados en el genocidio y a sus soldados fallecidos en Artsaj; tendrá que repensar y recalibrar con tiento su futuro.

Gavi does more than save the lives of children – cutting it will impoverish us all Trump is poised to stop funding vaccines for developing countries. It’s a huge mistake for MAGA from an economic and security point of view

"Knocking a hole in Gavi would not only undermine our security at home and result in millions of unnecessary childhood deaths and disablements. It would kick a great hole in the global economy - something that would impact every one of us" - Paul Nuki bit.ly/3FISAyP

Vaccines save lives. Leaders must champion them Attacks on vaccines and the cancellation of research into what causes vaccine hesitancy puts people in harm’s way.

We urge all leaders, for the good of their nations’ health, not to ignore or contradict advice that is supported by a consensus of evidence from research.

A line graph showing atmospheric CO2 levels at Mauna Loa Observatory from 1955 to 2025. The y-axis represents CO2 mole fraction in parts per million (ppm), ranging from 320 to 420 ppm, while the x-axis is years.

The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii.

@noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

How Jimmy Carter's global health efforts elevated 'the art of the possible' Former President Jimmy Carter, who died Sunday at age 100, gave visibility to devastating health problems that are often invisible.

President Jimmy Carter spent a good bit of his post presidency trying to rid the world of some truly awful diseases — things that afflict the poor & powerless like river blindness, Guinea worm & lymphatic filariasis. Not glamorous work, but so important. RIP. www.statnews.com/2024/12/29/h...

Idiotic move, which will endanger US & global health

It will make America and the world more vulnerable to future health crises

As I previously said, “it is hard to think of an action more destructive to public health at home & abroad than the U.S. severing ties with the WHO” 🧵
