As a founding member of World Health Organization (WHO), the United States of America has contributed significantly to many of WHO’s greatest achievements, including the eradication of smallpox. WHO has always engaged with the US, and all Member States, with full respect for their sovereignty.

Millions of people in Sudan are cut off from health care due to the ongoing attacks on health and block of lifesaving aid.
WHO is delivering supplies to places like Tawila, supporting families fleeing El Fasher, from cholera and acute malnutrition treatments to maternal and child health care.
We are ready to deliver more. But we need access now. Lives depend on it.

More than half of humanity lives in urban areas.
On #WorldCitiesDay, WHO launches a new guide for decision-makers to meet the growing demand for integrated urban health solutions.

We are on the verge of making polio the second human disease to be consigned to history.
Decades ago, humanity bridged geopolitical and geographic borders to end smallpox.
Let's do the same for polio.
Let's finish the job.

Showing the 12 most recent of 18 posts we hold for @DrTedros. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
