#UNGA80 is a test of global solidarity & a reminder that without health, there is no future.

As the 2030 deadline looms, the cracks in global health financing are widening. We need resilient, community-led systems to close them.

🚨 We demand urgent action: Expand the $40 lenacapavir price to all LMICs, not just those chosen by Gilead. Use TRIPS flexibilities, support local generics, & fund universal, not selective, access.
