Benoît Miribel, Président de @CFFondations, présente ACT-A: "Il y a 4 pilliers majeurs dans ACT-A : le diagnostic (...), les traitements thérapeutiques, le vaccin et enfin les systèmes de santé." #SolutionsforPeace
“We made 120 million rapid diagnostic tests available in low and middle-income countries with our partners.”, @MarisolTouraine highlights the workd of @UNITAID#ParisPeaceForum2020
“We have immunized more than 122 million additional children and young adults, preventing more than 14 million deaths. On top of that we are also working in the global health security area. (...) We’ve introduced 496 new vaccines.” Seth Berkley, on the work of @gavi
Seth Berkley of @gavi adds: “We created a new effort called COVAX, to try to get 2 billion doses initially by the end of 2021 for the world. (...) The idea was to try to have it made equally available.” #ParisPeaceForum2020
"The only approaches that are going to be working are public-private partnerships. Critically across borders, across continents, with equity and access at the heart.", points @JeremyFarrar, at the #ParisPeaceForum2020@wellcometrust
“The role of @SerumInstIndia is going to be a very crucial and vital role (...) in providing the low-cost, affordable and safe vaccines in very, very large volumes.”, says @adarpoonawalla at the #ParisPeaceForum2020
“Hundreds of millions of doses, maybe billions of doses in a very short time. That’s exactly the sort of work that we need to do collaboratively.”, highlights @adarpoonawalla, CEO and Owner of @SerumInstIndia, at the #ParisPeaceForum2020
“I want to insist on the fact that it’s not enough to work on vaccines, if we’re not able to provide diagnostics and support to the development of health systems.” notes @MarisolTouraine, President of @UNITAID#ParisPeaceForum2020
“If you look at the warning signs that Seth Berkley (@gavi) mentioned earlier, we’ve seen more pandemics over the last 20 years. We’re going to see more of them.” warns @JeremyFarrar, at the #ParisPeaceForum2020@wellcometrust
