Today at the @UN multi stakeholder meeting on pandemic prevention, preparedness and response, IDSA submitted a statement urging UN member states to: ⭐️strengthen global surveillance ⭐️build LMIC capacity to manufacture medical countermeasures ⭐️prioritize equitable access to drugs, vaccines and PPE during outbreaks @AzR86

Clinicians and researchers who focus on combatting infectious diseases are grateful for the leadership and contributions of Dr. Rochelle Walensky (@RWalensky) during her tenure leading the @CDCgov. She took on the challenge of leading the nation’s public health agency at a crucial time during the COVID-19 pandemic and her leadership saved lives.  Her most notable public health accomplishment at CDC was leading the rapid and efficient rollout of the COVID-19 vaccine to hundreds of millions of Americans, with a priority on safety and equity. Dr. Walensky’s efforts to modernize CDC and ensure the nation’s future health preparedness will be an important legacy. #WeAreID Our statement: idsociety.org/news--publicat…
