Over fifty years, vaccines have helped reduced infant mortality globally by 40% - offering hundreds of millions of babies the chance to lead healthy lives. By continuing to invest in vaccines, it's #HumanlyPossible to ensure our world's most vulnerable populations are protected.
New data show that in 50 years, vaccines saved ~154M lives from some our world's deadliest diseases for children, including pneumonia. By improving access to them, it's #HumanlyPossible to create healthier futures for all.

Growing evidence that two doses of pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) provide sufficient protection against #pneumonia - the leading infectious killer of young children. This research is critical to help increase coverage & save more lives around the world.

Measles is almost entirely preventable with vaccines, yet new @WHO data shows that cases are rising dramatically in Europe. By stepping up immunization efforts around the world, we can keep children safe and end this disease once and for all. bbc.com/news/health-68…
Extending a warm welcome to @SaniaNishtar as she leads @gavi’s next phase as CEO. I look forward to her leadership during this critical period to help deliver on our shared mission: a world where every child can access life-saving vaccines and live healthy, productive lives.

Such an honor to get this recognition from my Alma Mater
The immunity gap that has led to a high burden of pneumonia hospitalization in China is a strong reason for a national program of Hib and PCV to be introduced into children to save lives of kids in China
Did you know that #pneumonia is the largest infectious killer of children worldwide? In 2022, 739,000 kids died from pneumonia, the majority in low-income countries where access to preventive tools like pneumococcal conjugate vaccines (PCVs) and timely treatment is limited.
Hi everyone! @PSrikantiah here: physician, epidemiologist & Deputy Director of Global Health at @gatesfoundation. Today I’m taking over Trevor Mundel’s account for #WorldPneumoniaDay – you can follow along here!
There are two new protections available to prevent RSV: the world’s first #RSV vaccine for pregnant mothers who then pass protection on to their babies, and a monoclonal antibody drug that provides immediate protection to young infants. tinyurl.com/287zmekv
The 2023 Pneumonia & Diarrhea Progress Report is here! 📊🌍India has seen a significant surge in pneumonia-fighting vaccine coverage! Let's celebrate this incredible step towards better health for all! 🎉#VaccinesWork #WorldPneumoniaDay 🌟 bit.ly/PDPR_2023
Each year more than 230,000 people die from meningitis - half of whom are children under five. Proud to work with the @gatesfoundation and partners to increase access to life-saving vaccines and reduce the burden of this deadly disease across the globe.

Great to give the Jenner Lecture @StGeorgesUni on the ways we are helping to reduce inequity in childhood deaths by supporting development of vaccines for RSV, GBS, pneumococcus and the meningococcus
Just got my RSV vaccine - my similarly aged peers should get it too if its available!
Thrilled to see this groundbreaking innovation – a maternal vaccine to address RSV – approved in the US. This paves the way for improved access of this life-saving vaccine for mothers & babies in lower-income countries where the need is great: reuters.com/business/healt…
Exciting to see the EMA recommend approval of Pfizer’s maternal RSV vaccine. This is an important step to ensuring this life-saving tool becomes available everywhere.

Delighted to see this landmark paper published - a maternal vaccine to prevent the scourge of neonatal GBS is one step closer

The latest immunization data from @WHO and @UNICEF show progress for some countries but not all. We must continue efforts to recover from setbacks from the pandemic to ensure all children are protected from diseases like pneumonia and measles. reuters.com/business/healt…
Cheers to @gavi & partners for immunizing over 1B kids with childhood vaccines. Its market-shaping efforts also have greatly reduced the price of PCV over the last decade, helping protect more children from pneumonia—the leading infectious killer of kids. barrons.com/news/vaccine-a…
We can help prevent #cervicalcancer, thanks to #HPV vaccinations, but all girls need access. Prof. Nelly Muro at @KEMRI_Kenya highlights that "one dose of the HPV vaccine is as effective as two," making it easier and cheaper to reach all who are in need. telegraph.co.uk/global-health/…
