24 September 2021. The vaccine has been authorized by the Chinese National Regulatory Authority (NRA) – the National Medicinal Product Administration (NMPA) – as well as other regulatory authorities. Because WHO has granted Emergency Use Listing (EUL) for the COVID-19 Vaccine BIBP/ Sinopharm, th...e Africa Union and Africa CDC’s Regulatory Taskforce has endorsed the Emergency Use Authorization for the vaccine (see scenario #1) and the specification is 0.5ml/dose, 1 dose/vial; or 2 doses/vial; or 5 doses/vial. As such, African Union Member States are recommended to waive any review processes and rely directly on the WHO EUL via the AVAREF managed pathway described in Scenario #1.

The climate crisis has many consequences – among them widespread health impacts that will lead to immense societal, ecological, and economic harm.
Over the past two decades multiple large-scale reviews on climate change and health have made clear the need for a multi-sectoral approach to target t...he drivers and impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss, and ecosystem degradation. Despite this abundance of scientific evidence underscoring urgency of action, policy implementation responses lag behind. Even at COP26, itself delayed due to an ongoing pandemic, health continues to be considered by many countries a problem independent from climate and environment.

En una crisis de salud pública como la actual pandemia de COVID-19, cuando se implementan medidas de “distanciamiento social” para frenar la propagación de la infección, las personas que enfrentan cualquier tipo de violencia basada en género, como violencia de pareja íntima, violencia psico...lógica, física o sexual, pueden correr riesgos adicionales. Muchas de las personas sobrevivientes de violencia basada en género (VBG) se encuentran encerradas en los mismos espacios con los agresores durante períodos prolongados de tiempo, lo cual limita su privacidad y su capacidad de huir de la violencia y exacerba las amenazas a su vida, salud e integridad.
