General
- Typhoid is a serious illness, but we have the tools to #TakeOnTyphoid with proven interventions including #vaccines and #WASH
- How do we #TakeOnTyphoid? Through an integrated approach with #WASH and #typhoid conjugate vaccines! #VaccinesWork
- #WASH and #VaccinesWork better together! An integrated approach that includes both can #TakeOnTyphoid, protecting kids so they can grow and thrive.
- One solution alone won’t end typhoid. We need an integrated approach that includes proven interventions such as water, sanitation, and hygiene improvements alongside vaccines to #TakeOnTyphoid.
Vaccines
- #VaccinesWork to protect against many dangerous diseases, including #typhoid, keeping kids healthy so that they can reach their full potential. #TakeOnTyphoid
- Typhoid conjugate #VaccinesWork and can be given to kids as young as 6 months, providing lifesaving protection against this dangerous disease. #TakeOnTyphoid
- New typhoid conjugate #VaccinesWork to #TakeOnTyphoid by protecting children before they ever get sick
- Typhoid conjugate vaccines are safe and efficacious, preventing 79-85% of typhoid cases in vaccinated children. #TakeOnTyphoid #VaccinesWork
- #Typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) protect children against typhoid for at least 4 years after a single dose! #VaccinesWork to #TakeOnTyphoid
- #Typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) are highly effective and safe for children as young as 6 months of age! #VaccinesWork to #TakeOnTyphoid
- More than 56 million children have been vaccinated with #typhoid conjugate vaccines to protect against illness! #TakeOnTyphoid
Water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH)
- Safe water, sanitation, and hygiene practices are key to preventing typhoid. #TakeOnTyphoid #WASH #SafeHands
- #Handwashing with soap and proper food handling are crucial to #TakeOnTyphoid. #SafeHands
Drug resistance
- Typhoid is treatable, but drug resistance is increasing. We must #TakeOnTyphoid now by preventing illness with vaccines & #WASH. #StopSuperbugs #VaccinesWork
- Expanding coverage of typhoid vaccines can reduce the need for antibiotics & slow drug resistance. #VaccinesWork to #StopSuperbugs. #TakeOnTyphoid
- Prevention is key! As typhoid becomes more difficult to treat due to evolving drug resistance, we need to increase access to vaccines and focus on water, sanitation, and hygiene improvements to #TakeOnTyphoid.
- Multidrug-resistant typhoid is spreading, limiting treatment options and increasing the urgency for preventative measures such as vaccines to #TakeOnTyphoid.
- Diseases don’t respect borders. Drug resistant-typhoid anywhere is a threat everywhere. We must act now to #TakeOnTyphoid with proven interventions. #StopSuperbugs
- #Typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) protect children against typhoid – including drug-resistance strains – for at least 4 years. TCVs are crucial in the fight against superbugs! #AMR #StopSuperbugs #VaccinesWork #TakeOnTyphoid
Outbreaks
- New typhoid outbreaks demonstrate the urgency of access to #vaccines and #WASH. #TakeOnTyphoid
- Outbreaks remind us that we still have work to do to #TakeOnTyphoid & save lives.
- Drug resistance, urbanization, & #climatechange trends heighten the risk for typhoid outbreaks. #TakeOnTyphoid
Climate change and natural disasters
- Environmental extremes due to #climatechange can increase typhoid risks, raising the urgency for prevention through vaccines & WASH. #TakeOnTyphoid
- #DYK droughts and floods can put water sources at risk for #typhoid contamination? Safe water & sanitation, alongside vaccines can #TakeOnTyphoid. #climatechange
- #Climatechange poses increased risks for typhoid due to the higher likelihood of natural disasters like droughts and floods and the additional stresses these place on water, sanitation, and hygiene services. #TakeOnTyphoid
