Will someone who is committed in saving lives introduce a bill that will doom everyone

Bill’s words are taken from a face-to-face interview

15 years ago, you made a big bet with Gavi. How do you think that’s paid off?

“The work our Foundation has done in vaccines through Gavi has been the most important thing that we’ve done. The very creation of the Foundation came about because we saw this great inequity, and we gave early grants for vaccines, but then saw there was something missing. So several people in global health, including the Foundation, decided that starting something to buy vaccines for the world’s poorest children was absolutely needed. And in the year 2000 that was announced as Gavi. So now we’ve had 15 years of incredible success: getting people to make new vaccines for poor world diseases, getting the prices down for those, getting them introduced and delivered. That’s why we’ve saved millions of lives, and every time people look at aid money and ask what’s the most impactful thing they can find in that whole space, Gavi gets ranked at the very top.

As Gavi enters this new phase of massive scaling up, what sort of impact do you think that will have on childhood mortality and poverty?

Gavi did a fantastic job in its first 15 years, particularly getting the pentavalent vaccine out to all the world’s children, and it started getting the most important diarrhoeal vaccine (rotavirus) and most important respiratory disease vaccine (pneumococcus) out. Diarrhoea and pneumonia are the two biggest killers of children. And in this next 5 year phase, we’ll actually finish the rollout of both rotavirus and pneumococcus vaccines to all the world’s children. So it’s a phenomenal thing – it’ll be the largest single contribution to reducing childhood death. Over the last 25 years childhood death has been cut in half, and the hope for these next 15 years is that we can cut it in half again. The biggest part of that will be getting these new vaccines out to the poorest children.

In terms of vaccines, what are going to be the most important diseases over the next five years?

Well the biggest diseases are diarrhoea, pneumonia and malaria, and it’s phenomenal that we have this highly effective vaccine for diarrhoea, highly effective vaccine for pneumonia. Typically, it would have taken 30 years from when those were used in the rich world to when they’d be used in the developing world, which is ironic because the risk of death is over ten times greater in the developing world, where the child’s nutrition and immune system is not as strong, and the ability to seek medical care is far weaker. What we’ve done here is taken that delay and basically gotten rid of it, saying that these vaccines should get out to poor children as soon as they get out to rich children. And we’ve had to make sure that the vaccine is targeted to the particular strains that exist in developing countries. That’s required a new way of working with manufacturers, and a new way of working with countries, trying to anticipate the supply and demand, fixing the cold chain, the overall management of the vaccine delivery system.

So we’ve come a long way in the past 15 years, but finishing these two new vaccines will be our most important thing. We’ll have other new vaccines that we’ll be putting into the mix, such as HPV vaccine, which is for cervical cancer, a first generation malaria vaccine that will get some coverage, and there’s a vaccine for polio that’s part of eradication and needs to be put into routine immunisation. So we’ll have a lot to do! One of the big focuses will be making sure that coverage levels get even higher.

You mentioned HPV. What sort of role do you think Gavi will play in improving women’s health?

HPV is a great example of why we need Gavi. HPV vaccine is now available in basically every rich country, and girls have the option of getting that vaccine. It’s fantastic – it means they don’t get cervical cancer. Now in rich countries, you can usually spot it, and take care of it. But in fact if you get HPV, the virus, in a developing country, the chance that it’ll be stopped is almost zero. You’ll get cervical cancer and a lot of those women will die. So HPV vaccine really belongs in developing countries. Now the work’s been done to get the price down and the volume up, to make sure the strains are right, to get the vaccine systems in each country able to add this. This one is a bit tricky because instead of giving it in the normal EPI schedule in which we give all the other vaccines, this one has been tested only to give to school age children. So we have to set up a new delivery system and make sure it has very good coverage. And that is a key project for these next five years. That’s our most important introduction for the next five years.

Gavi’s about to enter into a new phase with a large number of countries graduating. What do you see as being the big challenges during that phase?

Well it’s great news that the Gavi recipient countries are increasing their GDP per person, and in some ways that’s what this is all about – as you improve the health of a country, those kids are productive, they’re fully developed, they can be educated. And we want every country to be self-sufficient, and that’s happened in countries like South Korea and Mexico, and many countries that are now middle income countries. So we celebrate the fact that many of these Gavi recipients like Indonesia are growing their economies.

Now they have to plan ahead though, because over a period of years they have to take on the extra cost of the vaccine and unless they’re very smart about that, they won’t have the money there. It’s critical that we preserve coverage. We’ve made sure they still get the low prices that we’ve negotiated, but instead of Gavi paying for basically all of it, over the years it shifts where they take on most of that burden. So we’ve been sitting down with the ministries of finance in these countries talking about that five year period, and there’s some of these countries that are dependent on commodities, including oil, where their future revenues are a bit unclear. And the other donors at this time, like eligibility for concessional loans, are going away as income goes up.

So making sure this all goes smoothly, and that children aren’t hurt here by loosing vaccine coverage, we’re going to have to be very agile, very smart about that. Another important thing that we have to do right in the next five years.

Come 2020, what are your hope and aspirations for Gavi? Where would you like Gavi to be?

By 2020, we’ll have rotavirus and pneumococcus vaccines out there, and that alone will save about half a million lives a year. And even if the kids survive, the health and the physical and mental development of these kids will be far far better, because they won’t have had these diseases making them weaker and blocking their development. So that alone is just a phenomenal thing. We’ll have HPV vaccine on its way to being rolled out globally, that won’t be completed. The good news will be if there were a few new vaccines – a super effective malaria vaccine, a TB vaccine. We hope that science gives us that challenge, and the Gates Foundation funds a lot of that upstream research that creates these products that have this huge impact. I hope we’ve managed to get coverage levels up in important countries, I hope we’ve shown we know how to do graduation and handle it well. We will have made the biggest single contribution to the reduction of childhood death, and even childhood malnutrition, through not having kids suffer from these diseases.

ClassicMG:
did you go through the bill and was there any place they made mention of you compulsory take 'bill gate' vacinne. See guy when this kind of pandemic happens the best bet to fight it is to develop vacinne to fight the virus. Think of polio think of minigites their vaccine is compulsory for every children and don't believe this rubbish news why will bill gate bride us just because he wants to help us. learn to analyse news don't just jump into conclusion just because it's suit your narratives

I don't blame them, na FFK dey deceive dem...
That's how they made up stories connecting Coronavirus with 5G and all that shit.

I simply don't get why people would use their phones while it's still charging, anything electricity no matter the break down in voltage it's still dangerous to gamble with... What will it kill u to just allow that phone charge at least an hour then unplug it, do whatever U're so pressed to do there in and plug back. It fvcks me up when I see people do dah shit

See full-time job
Abeg where can I find a sugar mommy like this

My pweek is aching for a sweet MILF like this

Without reading the name I know a typical edo man when I see him

No worry him go com house, he's just being locked down by his side chick

If u hate the smell of chicken poop don't even near Sweden right now

So If I do a video now where I'm stating the obvious by calling buhari a Fvcking sentimental bias infested tyrant now I will be arrested.

Buhari is a Fvcking sentimental bias infested tyrant!
Mtcheeeww!

Mehn dat lady don do garri farming tire, see her akpruka hand... If that lady is really 22years eh make I 4, that woman is above 25

If not for government ineptitude and lackadaisical management of its people should these punks even be working here, all they'll do is to come and train people and leave, better yet get expertrates from smarter countries not these moochers who steal ideas and then be forming smart to Africans. They come here, bribe their way through any rights left of nigerian citizens and it most definitely works coz they're already in contract with govt itself, as long as they keep paying their 'tithes'(egunje) they have immunity and control over the rights of poor nigerian citizen... This is just particular to this dumb ogunstate govt, they just don't give a shit about anything "je kon ko owo wa" is their motto... And lest I forget the indigenes themselves are just hereditary cowards.
Mtcheeeww!!!

YorubaKinging:
The end is near

This coming Monday, the EU will launch a global initiative that Emmanuel Macron has been talking about for the past Month.

A initiative to create funds to create VACCINEs and distribute it evenly even to poor Africans

The VACCINE will be the password to all things very soon
Without the vaccine, you won't be able to get get a "certificate of vaccination"

And some basic human rights will be stripped away

The world is already in the next phase of the new world order

U people and ur dooms day mentality will never cease to amaze me

Hathor5:
I would like to ask your wife why she stayed with you through it all.

Let me answer that on her behalf... FINANCIAL SECURITY; financial security can make a woman stay with the devil himself. The only exception to my opinion is if the woman's family is only as wealthy or wealthier than the husband then she could always run back to her rich daddy after every fight, but when she from poor house and the husband was like a kind of Messiah that elevated the family through her... Her ghost will still stay even if he kills her.

Slawormir:
Damnnnnn niggarrr
Let me learn
Fired= gross misconduct or you go against the organisation's rules

Lay off= this one make sense. Them dey tell you say Bros no work for you or rather your area when you for be specialist don finish. Oya dey go house. Bonus money dey follow this one

retrenchment: Bros dey go house but we fit still call you back make you resume work if everything good for us.

Then sack: this one na soft fired. But na the same thing with fired. Probably them don set up a disciplinary committee on top your head to check your gross misconduct before them conclude to tell you good bye

Bros op i don try. You owe me some bottles and weed.

Uncle ur no.2 suppose be 3 and no.3 no.2

"Layoff" is like unemployment of a staff, mostly temporarily, probably due to a cease of activities in the company.

"retrenchment" is like a company's way of cutting cost, so they select some old workers to send off.

Sack and fire share similarities but I think;
"sack" is termination of a staff's employment with a bit of respect i.e with a formal procedure (sack letter)... While
"firing" a staff is disgraceful like taking his ID and walking him out effectively; More like when employer say "I'll kick you out"... Have u seen how tom kicks Jerry when he catches him in the "Tom and Jerry" cartoon series, more like that. Shameful termination.

I've learned by teaching.
U're welcome OP

frankmoney:
We actually need the ventilators.... It depends on how you interpret it . To me what he meant is just that the country really needs it , not like they have sold the country or anything . In my opinion

Sounded more to me like "shit hole will be needing these ventilators to breath"

But all the same we'll need all the help and assistance we can get pride/reputation asides, it's a global problem that the all human race need to join hands together to defunct. This thing is not child's play, it's a war for existence between the human race and this epidemic.

Yet another scheme that will end up futile

Flier:
Not all of them goes back to it,but I think it also depends on tribe
Most Igbo ladies don't go back to their past after getting married, let's say 5% goes back compared to
Yoruba about 50 percent goes back to their past while
South South people about 90%

Ur analysis is garbage... Go and do proper findings. Don't channel this ethnically, it's rather more of individuality and on the grounds of promiscuity.

JasonJidenna:
It's just like a politician who engaged in vote buying and pulled a massive number of votes to beat his opponents....


1. Don't expect him to be FREE and FAIR when he is sworn in.

2. Don't expect him to deliver the DIVIDENDS of democracy.

3. Don't expect him to be FAITHFUL with public funds.

Brilliant instance
That popular statement that "OLD HABBITS DIE HARD"

Ndukwe007:
Chai. I can feel your pain. Isn't that turning into rape?



My sister, some of us are having the same experience. I've been married to my husband for the past 20yrs, and its sex sex everyday except on my period. We've had series of issues because of it but oga no gree change. Most times I start fights because I don't want to do but he will still come for it. What I've doing for more than 2yrs now is just to lay back and allow him do what he want without participating ( he no kuku dey mind again)..I also pretend to sleep when he is doing it. Most people here will not understand what you are going through, just learn to live with it. Thats my own advise

I like ur husband, my main man!!!
Remember U're married to that pweek 4life

Julietsim:
We didn't have sex until we were married. I never knew he was like this.

This is exactly the issue here... U had to let the guy starve for it for so long, now like someone who got out of prison he's lion hungry for that PUSsey. My advice; give him as requested before one calaba girl show him the rubber waist or "draw coconut" on top of him, then u will know konjee na bastard.

Well every man to his thoughts, opinions, orientation and perception shaa. U people make sex seem like its a tool crafted by the devil... God is not who y'all are making him to be with all these dogmatism, he's not a hinderer of freedom.

Besides, ask ur selves; what if greater beings don't care what we do ... Like we don't care what ants do.

Awesome01:
Do not be deceived my good people, I'm yet to see or hear of anybody in Ogun getting any palliative or relief packages. I stay very close to Abeokuta, have people staying in Idiroko and Shagamu and some other Remo areas, none have verified this claim.

My apologies if U're an indegene but ogunstate is the worse state in all 36 states when it comes to government, they just neglect everything, less concerned about anything, and to think that this very state has produced leaders just kicks me in the balls... Obasanjo is just wicked bone

Indeed wonders shall never seize to amaze me at the cruelty & animousity of the present times... So, someone cannot just ask people to leave his house again and live another day!

All these small boys that don't have sense that in the dawn of day will go and take igbo, Colorado, SK, gegemu, action bitters, dorobuci in a bunker somewhere then be on there lunacy spree. See his stone cold face I bet he's a cultist if proper interrogations be carried out, na dem dey quick reach dis kind of "iweh"(wickedness) animal!!!
Let him be chopped small small with razor blade head to toe then pore acid in the wound. Quick justice is too merciful for people like him

Oladayo12:
They're all bunch of crooks. which part of odo-odo otta did you reside?

Doyin/medina

Oladayo12:
I wonder o, that local govt seems not to exist i swear. Agbara/lusada region is even the worst sef, dont even know if they consider them to be lagos.

I tell u my broda, nothing gets here except campaign bills and govt officials visiting companies to collect egunje mtcheeeww!
It's sickening

Talking of 80,000 houses and 400,000 people... Is ado odo ota local govt abandoned in this palliative scheme coz I never here anything at all, perhaps local govt chairman and his kins don sit-down on top.

Mr man u don go fvck kokorow PUSsey

Some years back I was very in need of work, there's this guy that runs cyber cafe I used to do photocopy and stuff in his shop. One day as usual I went there to do photocopy and one talk led to another he asked where I worked I told him, he know the company and how poor the pay is and zero employment benefits, so he asked me if I would like to work in Julius Berger which he showed me his ID card that he's a staff there and he told me a lot of mind blowing things working in Julius Berger assures, I was wowed at hearing these goodies so my interest was instant like I wanted to start work that day. Then I just got into adulthood, the guy knew over happiness will make me do anything. So he asked me to bring my CV which I have lost, so he helped me prepare another one, his printer was bad he had to take me to another cyber cafe to finish the job, all that care has now made build trust and confidence in him. When we got back that evening the first taxing began, he said he was thirsty for beer I should buy him and I did, we went to a beer parlour close by he drank 2bottles that day, we exchanged contacts and he said he will call me and assured that I will most assuredly get the job as I was going through him. Some days later he called that the company has selected people and I was among that the selected persons will converge at the main bustop in my area that the staff bus will carry everyone to the head quarters in ijora for interview and health test that I should come out very early, it got to the date but I couldn't make it there early enough, when I got there I called him that I was there but I came a little late the bastard acted like he was disappointed and was saying things like "why didn't u come early naw, now I would have to do a lot of explaining to the man that is helping us" and then he said I should wait he's coming, and then he came some minutes later, he acted like he was confused and doesn't know what to do and then he asked if I had some cash on me and I certainly came prepared for any disappointments that may occur, he then asked me to buy ampiclox from a nearby pharmacy around that it will clear any bacteria In my body so I'll pass the test and I did as instructed, and then he asked if I had enough cash that we will go by commercial transport as we've missed the staff bus. We got to Julius Berger gate, he asked me to stay outside that the security guards can arrest me for trespassing, he went inside and then came out like half an our later and then called me in, we went in and ask me to sit down at one concrete and he went inside one office and later came out that the interview and test had been cancelled, I felt like killing him but he was my ticket home coz the cash with me will not carry me home, I told him so, we now had to wait for the evening bus conveying staffs to our location, it was hell for me that day as I fell sick as a result of the ampiclox I took that morning on empty stomach, I fell very ill that evening(did I mention he collected 2k from me before we went to ijora).
To cut story short this guy played me like PS3 till he collected up to 7k before my ancestors probably slap my brain and my senses connect again and I backed out, already the guy had collected my new London used blackberry curve 7 and gave me his bb voltron or wat did they call that bb dat looked like coco yam that he needed to be in contact with the person employing staffs. Kai if I'm remembering that whole story I'll just want to use pestle and factory reset my brain one more time so I don't fall such mugu again.

Mtcheeeww!!!

Couldn't really tell but I think it's the V-shaped head specie, it's venom high... Thank God for u and ur kids Mehn.

Nooil:
My dear... Are good girls willing to take all these risks? Is it not better to put your hope in God than to try and do what you don't have the strength for?

Well isn't that the problem, God has given everyone the potential and power to get whatever we want on earth, thinking he will arrange one good man that has been praying to find u is just ludicrous... Na pastor arangee be dat believe me

Nooil:
If we all mind our business and focus on God's purpose for our lives, we won't be discussing this nonsense.

Reasons runs girls marry faster might be one of the following:

Some have clear skin and are beautiful. Take it or leave it, men are moved by sight. Just be beautiful and have small manners, they'll propose. Not all good sisters have this advantage. The ones that do are married.

They date sugar daddies. These sugar daddies give them money to take care of themselves. Further making them attractive to unsuspecting young men.

They know how to take care of men. Runs girls will know how to prepare appetizer, main course, and dessert for their man after sex. Men like caring women

They have sex without thinking. Good girls know fornication is a sin. But how many men are willing to wait until marriage these days? Runs girls give it to them anytime anywhere.

Runs girls have marriage connection. This connection could be from their mother (some runs girls mama dey soji. Not holy mothers that want to kill their daughters if they come home after 7pm), extended family, old clients, etc.

Runs girls are not afraid of getting pregnant. And pregnancy is still a good trick to tie a man down. Good girls fear abortion.


To be continued...

u've said it all... In addition; runs girls know how to position, bend anyhow u wanna, hit how u Lika, but u self righteous women will just lie down make e dey nack, no style no pre sex skills at all... Men go crazy for these things. It was in the old days we say "the way to a man heart is by giving him food" (true, no doubt). Nowadays Its not just chawl, sex+quality romance+palatable meals is the way to a man's heart.
