We need to prepare for the next challenge, not the last. But it's hard to get Govts to invest in preparedness. Disease specific programme silos are wasteful & not sustainable. Instead, a shift to health system strengthening = greater resilience = better health security. /3
It was a privilege & a great honour to serve my country as @NCDCgov DG. I am full of gratitude for the run I had & for all my helpers along the way. God bless you all. Congratulations to Dr. Jide Idris as he assumes office. I wish him every success. Many thanks to my NCDC team.

Most international students go home afterwards. A few, like me, stay. I've worked in the NHS, treated 1000s of patients, taught 4500+ medical students, 1500+ public health students, scores of public health registrars & junior doctors. I'm still delivering for the British people.
