Sharing things I'm learning through my foundation work and other interests.
European Commissioner @SKyriakidesEU and I discussed the importance of multilateral partnerships like @CEPIvaccines in ending this pandemic and preventing another.

To have any hope of reaching net zero and halting the progress of climate change, we need deep and comprehensive collaboration between the public and private sectors worldwide. I was encouraged by today’s discussions about how to accelerate innovation.
The omicron surge is an unfortunate reminder that the only way to eliminate the threat of COVID-19 somewhere is to eliminate it everywhere. That’s why @gatesfoundation is joining @wellcometrust to renew our investment in @CEPIvaccines.
Genomic sequencing is a critical tool that will help us fight COVID-19 and prevent the next pandemic.
The fight to eradicate HIV is far from over, but incredible progress has been made through scientific innovation, activism, and collective global action. These lessons provide a path forward with COVID-19 and hope for preventing the next pandemic.
ICYMI here’s a recap of my conversation with @devisridhar. We chatted about this pandemic, how to prevent the next one, and a few things in between.
Thanks @devisridhar for taking the time today to discuss omicron, vaccines, and how the world can come together to prevent the next pandemic.
Through my foundation work I'm very lucky to have the opportunity to talk to—and learn from—experts in many different fields. Many of my conversations recently have been about the omicron variant and how to prevent the next pandemic.
Understanding how the connections in our brains give rise to consciousness and our ability to learn may help lead to great breakthroughs in the way we solve the world’s hardest problems. This is one of the most fascinating books I read this year.
[email protected] is one of my favorite authors. I was eager to read his latest book about CRISPR and its inventor Jennifer Doudna:
Heroes like @PumlaNtlabati are spreading important information, and hope, across South Africa with the help of an unusual and innovative tool:
We have some, but not all, of the tools we need to hit our target of limiting global warming to less than 2 degrees. We need to prioritize closing that gap if we’re going to avoid a climate disaster:
The world has lost a hero. Archbishop Desmond Tutu led with his values, empathy and optimism. He put everyone he met at ease with his incredible laugh and energy. He inspired me with his sense of purpose to build peace out of the struggle of oppression. I will miss him greatly.
One of my favorite holiday traditions is sharing books with family and friends. Here are 5 books I loved reading this year:
Mamello Makhele is a hero from Lesotho who traveled by foot and donkey to bring health services to women in need during the pandemic. Her story is nothing short of inspiring:
Just when it seemed like life would return to normal, we could be entering the worst part of the pandemic. Omicron will hit home for all of us. Close friends of mine now have it, and I’ve canceled most of my holiday plans.
In Tanzania, health workers and community members are serving as disease detectives with a new app called Afyadata:
I spoke to Prime Minister @Kishida230 about his new global health strategy and Japan’s commitment to the world’s poorest people. I’m encouraged to see this pledge and Japan’s recent leadership of the @WBG_IDA and Nutrition for Growth summits.

The Omicron variant is concerning, but the world is better prepared to tackle potentially bad variants than at any other point in the pandemic. Here’s why I’m still hopeful the end of the COVID-19 pandemic is finally in sight:
Great to meet with @MohamedbinZayed again to recognize Niger’s progress in the fight against neglected tropical diseases. His commitment to this fight, to polio eradication and to disease elimination at large will help save millions of lives.
