The Surgical Safety Checklist works. But proper utilisation has been a challenge.
New results show what works:
✔ onsite clinical capacity building
✔ mentorship
✔ collaborative cluster-based learning platforms
In Ethiopia, this package improved utilisation by 39% to over 90%.

According to the Lancet Commission, more than 5 billion people in the world lack access to #safesurgery. Where you live in the world should not dictate your level of surgical care.
Safe, accessible and affordable #surgery must be a global priority.

Today, @DrTedros highlighted that without proper #HealthWorkforce we'll never achieve #UHC, #GlobalHealthSecurity or the #SDGs. 🧑⚕️
BUT there’s a projected shortage of 10 million health workers by 2030. LMICs have as little as 10% of the health workers as the richest countries 😓

In his special message, @ABorreroVega welcomes the establishment of #SURGfund and issues a powerful call to countries, philanthropy, and the private sector to invest.
