“Local manufacturing of health products is no longer a goal we can postpone; it is an urgent priority.” - @WilliamsRuto
Africa’s health security depends on local production, sustained investment, and strong partnerships to build capacity and advance health sovereignty.

In 2024, 2.4 million women were diagnosed with breast cancer globally. Yet five-year survival ranges from 41.9% in low-income to 87.3% in high-income countries.
Awareness matters, but timely diagnosis and equitable access to quality care are essential.
#BreastCancerAwareness
A door handle. A phone. A desk. Germs can spread through everyday contact.
Handwashing helps break that chain. Make it a habit, encourage others, and help protect those around you.
Wash. Remind. Protect.
