A polio-free world is possible, but only if everyone works together. This #WorldPolioDay, we’re proud to continue working with @Rotary to @EndPolioNow by matching Rotary's annual $50m commitment to #EndPolio 2-to-1: endpol.io/give.

Everyone deserves equitable access to healthcare. That’s why we engaged partners like @MedsForAll and @OfficialUoM to find more affordable, safe materials that generic manufacturers can use to produce medicines at a lower cost.
We’ve done this before. In 2017, the @gatesfoundation worked with partners and generic suppliers to bring improved HIV therapies to more than 18 million people in lower-income countries.
If we’re going to end the acute phase of the pandemic, life-saving drugs like molnupiravir must be available to everyone who needs them.
If we’re going to end the acute phase of the pandemic, life-saving drugs like molnupiravir must be available to everyone who needs them.
Today we’re committing $120 million to accelerate access to molnupiravir, a promising drug for responding to COVID-19.
Therapeutics like this usually take at least one year to reach low-income nations. We’re aiming to reduce that gap significantly.

Today, we’re excited to announce a new partnership between the UK Government and BE Catalyst. Our collaboration with @UKinvestoffice will invest £400m in the next generation of groundbreaking climate-smart technologies that will get us to zero emissions.
I’m grateful to have joined @BorisJohnson today to highlight the important work that @Breakthrough Energy Catalyst is doing to accelerate clean technologies. Our partnership with the UK will be critical to building the net-zero economy.
A pleasure to sit down with @BillGates at the Global Investment Summit today, where we announced a new £400m partnership between the government and @Breakthrough to supercharge a green industrial revolution across the UK: gov.uk/government/new…

Reaching net zero will take bold action and creativity, and the first cohort of @Breakthrough Energy Fellows makes me optimistic that we can propel a new industrial revolution. b-gat.es/3AJtJTd

Still, the disparities in access to the COVID-19 vaccine are shocking and unjust. Only 2 percent of people in low-income countries have received any COVID-19 vaccines. And the gap may be getting even larger as rich-world governments buy up extra doses to serve as booster shots.
Inequity in health is not new. Each year, more than 5 million children—almost entirely in low- and middle-income countries—die before their fifth birthday from mostly preventable diseases. Reducing this gap has been the Gates Foundation’s top priority for more than 20 years.

The pandemic has worsened inequities. But it's also shown the world what's possible when we come together. Read why there's reason to be optimistic in our 2021 Goalkeepers Report. b-gat.es/3AAzCC3

What a fantastic leader Dr. Collins has been. The U.S. is lucky to have amazing scientists and public health professionals like him. He leaves an incredible legacy.
It's been a privilege & honor to serve as #NIH Director for over 12 years. However, I believe no person should hold this position for too long. So with deep gratitude to this great agency & the people who carry out its mission, I've decided to step down. nih.gov/news-events/ne…

Girin Beeharry was an extraordinary leader and good friend. I’m saddened by his death and inspired by his work to improve lives in India and around the world.
We are deeply saddened by the passing of our colleague Girin Beeharry who was pivotal in setting up our India office and our work on global education. Beyond his great leadership, he was an incredible human who embodied our mission and values to the fullest. He will be missed.

Thanks for the conversation and for your leadership in helping to end this pandemic and prevent the next one.
If we want to put this pandemic behind us, we need to get shots in arms at home & around the world. I spoke with @BillGates yesterday about how we can meet this goal and be better prepared for the next pandemic.
More than 80% of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered in high- and upper-middle-income countries while less than 1% have been administered in low-income countries. This is both profoundly unfair and hinders progress towards ending the pandemic: b-gat.es/3CUBM1d
A global response will help the world end the COVID crisis. I'm glad to see so many leaders coming together at this U.S.-led virtual Global COVID-19 summit, and look forward to their continued efforts to help the world move out of the acute phase of this pandemic.

As we’ve seen this past year, new variants of a disease can emerge over time. In order to develop new tools to fight the disease, we need to identify those variants quickly. Dr. Senjuti Saha is one expert working to sequence SARS-CoV-2: b-gat.es/3kjGgYx
Of course, the full extent of the pandemic’s impact on the SDGs will take years to fully understand, as more and better data becomes available. And this data doesn’t diminish the very real suffering the pandemic has caused for people everywhere—far from it.
Initial projections about the pandemic’s impact on the fight against malaria were dire. But that projection spurred many countries to action to ensure that bed nets were distributed and that testing and antimalarial drugs remained available.
When the pandemic hit, many feared the worst when it came to maintaining progress on fighting other diseases. But all over the world people stepped up to avert the worst-case scenarios. One example is malaria: b-gat.es/2VQxgkn pic.twitter.com/aM5mszTtWR
