.@DrTedros : One of WHO’s primary concerns has been to ensure #healthworkers have access to personal protective equipment.

.@DrTedros : New data from WHO and @UNICEF show that 1 in 4 health facilities globally lack basic water services. This puts #healthworkers and patients at risk from infections of all kinds, makes childbirth much less safe, and drives antimicrobial resistance. | via @WHO 
.@DrTedros : We know that for every dollar invested in #handhygiene alone, there is a return of 15 dollars.
In other words, investing in water, sanitation and hygiene is not just the right thing to do, it’s the smart thing to do. | via @WHO
