"Three years ago today, I declared a public health emergency of international concern over the global spread of #COVID19 – the highest level of alarm under the International Health Regulations, and for the moment, the only level of alarm"-@DrTedros #EB152
@DrTedros "As you know, on Friday the Emergency Committee met to consider whether that remains the case. The committee has advised me that in its view, #COVID19 remains a global health emergency, and I agree"-@DrTedros #EB152 bit.ly/3JtgqhJ

"Vaccines are among the most powerful inventions in human history. Thanks to vaccines, smallpox is no more, polio is on the brink of eradication, and once-feared diseases like diphtheria, tetanus, measles and meningitis can now be easily prevented"-@DrTedros #VaccinesWork
@DrTedros "And of course, vaccines have helped to change the course of the #COVID19 pandemic. But this scientific triumph has been undermined by vast inequities in access to these life-saving tools"-@DrTedros #VaccinEquity
@DrTedros @OIFrancophonie "This agreement is the next step in strengthening the already-close relationship between our two organizations, building on the Memorandum of Understanding we signed in April"-@DrTedros
@DrTedros @OIFrancophonie "The #COVID19 pandemic has highlighted the importance of global solidarity and international collaboration. The @OIFrancophonie's commitment to peace, democracy and human rights makes it an ideal partner for WHO"-@DrTedros
@DrTedros @WorldHealthSmt "That first @WorldHealthSmt, in 2009, was held in the immediate aftermath of the global financial crisis, and in the shadow of the H1N1 pandemic. In the 12 years since then, the World Health Summit has become a landmark on the global health calendar"-@DrTedros #WHS2021

The three best tools are:
* Wearing a mask
* Maintaining physical distancing
* Improving ventilation / filtration
