Main quest: Advocating for better public policy, mostly on access to medicines. Also keen on access to tech to combat climate change, other challenges. Side quests: vegan baking, planning festivals, LED art, sharing obscure facts about unicorns.
Congrats to @justtreatment.org and Right to Breathe on getting the price of a lifesaving medicine to drop from $360,000 a year to $6,375 a year. This will give children with cystic fibrosis longer, healthier lives. @medslawpolicy.bsky.social 's take is here: medicineslawandpolicy.org/2025/10/gene...

I have just learned that yesterday was international unicorn day. So happy belated to everyone, and let's hope the @who.int finds its unicorn in the form of a powerful treaty to stop the next pandemic.

At the last session of the @who.int negotiating body on a pandemic accord. We have 5 days left to conclude text that will help us better prepare the world for the next pandemic. #enablingaccess to medicines is key

Apple pie (with unicorns). If the pandemic treaty doesn't work out, let's all band together and open an amateur bakery. :P
