#WHA75 requested WHO to continue the integration of information related to terms, codes & definitions of existing systems for naming medical devices through the Medical Devices Information System bit.ly/3LV7Ea0
There are currently thousands of types of different medical devices in use, ranging from stethoscopes to complex imaging technologies. The absence of a common standard name for each has caused confusion; affected supply & traceability; and impeded health care delivery #WHA75
#WHA75 approved a Global Strategy on Infection Prevention and Control (IPC) that aims to position IPC as central to infectious hazard and health emergency preparedness & response bit.ly/3LV7Ea0
📌Delegates today at the #WHA75 approved a number of recommendations relating to non-communicable diseases (NCDs) such as cancers, diabetes, heart and lung diseases, as well as to mental health, and their risk factors.

#AddingLifeToYears
People around the 🌏 are living longer than ever before. This is good news: we now have an opportunity to be & do what we value for longer.
But our societies & environments still require significant transformations to help us maximise this opportunity. 👉 who.int/health-topics/…
But our societies & environments still require significant transformations to help us maximise this opportunity. 👉 who.int/health-topics/…
Although we are living longer, our extra years are not necessarily being lived in good health.
In part, this is because the negative effects of living in unsupportive, unhealthy environments accumulate over time & often manifest in later life.

⬆️increase #clinicaltrial capacity globally
🌟 prioritise well-designed trials
🤝 better coordinate trial efforts

#WHA75 adopts a landmark decision to improve WHO’s financing model where Member States target a gradual increase of their membership dues to represent 50% of WHO’s core budget by the 2030-2031 budget cycle, at the latest bit.ly/3yWTLVR
It is intended that the gradual increase to assessed contributions will start with WHO’s 2024-25 budget, with a proposed 20% increase over the assessed contributions in the approved 2022-23 base budget #WHA75
WHO's current financing model has been identified by many experts as posing a risk to the integrity & independence of its work. WHO’s over-reliance on voluntary contributions results in an ongoing misalignment between organizational priorities & the ability to finance them #WHA75

Spurious claims by this organisation considering there's no case number by the complainant nor other documentation available.
This is the problem over the last few weeks. We've been so littered in misinformation to the point that the public doesn't know what's true/false...

1⃣ It was 'unsurprising' to the claimant that their filing for JR & was refused & subsequently their appeal.
But of course it would be due to the glaring obvious that their claim was about an issue not directly involving the British Govt.

2⃣ It is untrue that 11/12 US proposed ammendments to the IHR (2005) are 'off the table'.
According to the current #WHA75 plenary, the text for US ammendments could well be discussed, but that doesn't mean adoption of those ammendments either.
