Make sure your childβs measles vaccination is up to date.

Against a blue background, graphic representation shows a diverse group of women holding a megaphone and placard. In the background are two yellow and black striped tapes. The text reads 'Women's health needs change from the time they are born to older age. But they often hit roadblocks to receive the right diagnosis and treatment they need.'
Today is #InternationalWomensDay
Progress on #GenderEquality in health care is too slow.
Women have distinct & changing health needs at different stages of their lives. Health care should be easy to access, fair & tailored to meet each womanβs unique needs & circumstances.

In 2025, let's make sure mental health is given the same priority as physical health by standing up against stigma and ensuring more people can access the support they need.
