to infectious diseases, potentially triggering the world’s next health catastrophe, the head of a major aid organization has warned.
“I think we’ve probably already begun our next health crisis. It’s not a new pathogen but it means people who are poorly nourished will be more vulnerable to the existing diseases,” he said in an interview on the sidelines of a G20 health minister meeting in the Indonesian city of Yogyakarta. “We were surprised that the President-elect chose to head the DA. But it’s a pleasant surprise. This means he recognizes there is a problem in the agency and farmers need immediate help. This is a welcome development, especially now that the country is facing a food crisis,” Cabatbat said in a statement.
“The Philippines can achieve ‘food sovereignty’ if the government prioritizes measures that will support local farmers in the country,” Cabatbat said. The battle to contain the spread of coronavirus has taken resources away from the fight against tuberculosis, which killed 1.5 million people in 2020, according to World Health Organization data.“In 2020 you saw globally 1.5 million people less getting treated for TB and tragically that means several hundreds of thousands of people will die, but also that those people will infect other people.”
Moscow has countered by saying that it is Western sanctions that are to blame for shortfalls in the Middle East and Africa.
