Congratulations to my friend @MikeBloomberg on his reappointment as @WHO Global Ambassador for Noncommunicable Diseases and Injuries, marking 10 years of partnership and impact.
From tobacco control and road safety to data for health and now lead poisoning, your leadership has helped put the prevention higher on the global agenda.
Thank you, Mike. I look forward to continuing our work together to save lives and build a healthier future for all. #UNGA

Africa is losing one life every two minutes to road crashes and most of these deaths are preventable.
Today, WHO and CJID bring together top editors from across the continent to shape Africa’s first road safety media guidelines.
Changing how we tell these stories can change how leaders act.
