- AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) marks World Health Day on April 7 by reminding world leaders and global public health institutions that a new Global Public Health Convention is still needed if the world is to be ready to prevent and respond effectively to future pandemics.
- “The world still desperately needs a new global public health framework that ensures transparency, accountability, and cooperation – aspects of which member states are still going back and forth about during International Negotiating Body meetings to draft a new pandemic accord.
- On World Health Day, we call on all countries, particularly wealthy nations, to do what is right and establish a pandemic treaty that protects all countries.
- Otherwise, we’ll continue repeating the same mistakes that led to nearly seven million deaths thanks to a world unprepared for COVID-19.”
