A Strong 💪 #HealthUnion is a top EU priority and remains one of the key issues for European citizens. On #WorldHealthDay, here are some examples of our actions over the past few years: 🔹 Reinforcing health security so that we are better prepared to prevent, detect and respond to future health threats 🔹Reforming the EU pharmaceutical legislation to make sure that everyone has access to safe and affordable medicines (read our #EUPharmaReform💊 mini-series here 👉 https://shorturl.at/uAMPT) 🔹Joining forces under #EUCancerPlan to make life-changing improvements on prevention, diagnosis, treatment and care 🔹Putting #mentalhealth in the spotlight with a new Comprehensive Approach 🔹Using a #OneHealth approach to address major threats like antimicrobial resistance #AMR And our work is not limited to EU borders: Through the #EUGlobalHealthStrategy, we are investing EUR 4.4 billion to boost health in partner countries up to 2027. And we continue to show our support for Ukraine through health, including through medical evacuation and mental health support. With a strong Health Union, we are better prepared for the future. We have strengthened our resilience against future threats and laid the groundwork for a healthier, safer Europe for all. #EUDelivers Read our statement here 👉 https://europa.eu/!KBNcxG

URGENT - World Health Organization PANDEMIC TREATY: From April 29th - May 10th, the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body is expected to finalize the terms of pandemic agreement. Pamela Hamamoto is the U.S. chief negotiator for the pandemic accord negotiations. The latest draft agreement would require member states to: 1) ensure the existence of emergency use authorization legal frameworks (Article 14), 2) avoid liability and create no-fault compensation schemes for pandemic vaccines (Article 15), 3) coordinate to "prevent misinformation", or in other words, to censor (Article 18). The current draft provides the basis for the widespread implementation of untested novel products and approval to censor. Major revisions are required to prevent a biological product safety disaster. #MFPolicy https://lnkd.in/gD5xNa_X https://lnkd.in/dqqPMTv8 https://lnkd.in/gqiCzwkk Nicolas Hulscher Peter McCullough, MD, MPH

As the world continues to grapple with the COVID-19 pandemic, concerns have been raised about China's transparency regarding the virus. https://lnkd.in/g7kMeNrq Global health officials are worried about the lack of information being shared and the potential impact on the global response to the pandemic. Despite how worrying this is, we would be in a much better place if more public spaces provided better Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) By providing better IAQ, we could combat this virus and many others.

The EU must protect our health from the threat of #AMR! As the European Elections approach, we demand that the new parliament builds on the Council recommendation on AMR this summer, by putting action on AMR at the core of the EU agenda – not only for health, but across sectors in a #OneHealth approach. We demand that the EU addresses AMR by: 🔸Ensuring all EU countries have national action plans with a One Health approach 🔸Establishing strict rules on the use of antibiotics for humans and animals, and using import rules to regulate antibiotic use 🔸Funding research into AMR 🔸Addressing AMR via the EU Global Health Strategy 🔸Using measurable targets, surveillance and data sharing platforms to quantify action 🔸Increasing public awareness Read our manifesto priority on AMR, and what we want MEPs to focus on in the next parliament: https://lnkd.in/eM6jcftj #WAAW2023 #antimicrobialresistance #KeepAntibioticsWorking European People's Party European Greens Socialists and Democrats Group in the European Parliament The Greens/EFA in the European Parliament ALDE Party Renew Europe The Left in the European Parliament Party of European Socialists (PES)
