The Director General @CMuvunyi hosted representatives from @DanishMFA to discuss #Rwanda's leadership in vaccine cold chain systems, #OneHealth, and drone-enabled vaccine delivery.
The meeting highlighted the RBC–ACES–University of Birmingham partnership, with Rwanda's experience informing future health programmes across the region and beyond, through knowledge sharing and the transfer of proven innovations.

Etienne Tshisekedi said it, Nelson Mandela said it, Julius Nyerere said it. But we call them liars! However, some people find themselves believing in the words of Felix Tshisekedi and MONUSCO.

RESPONSE TO ACCUSATIONS OF SUPPORT TO DRC ARMED GROUP
Accusing Rwanda of support to the Congolese armed group M23 is wrong and distracts from the real cause of continued conflict in Eastern DRC, and its impact on the security of neighbouring states, including Rwanda.

Who said Drs, nurses… are not saddened by poor health outcome or death? None of them wakes up in the morning with bad intentions or negligence.
Why do we question HCP for every lost life? And forget saved lives.
#pooroutcome is not poor performance
#normalize HCP appreciation

So excited to share our work on surgical-site infections (SSIs) & antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in Rwanda! With growing access to surgical care, SSIs are on the rise - further complicated by increasing resistance to antibiotics. doi.org/10.5334/aogh.3413 @PIH_Rwanda @HarvardPGSSC
