Typhoid intestinal perforation (TIP) is one of the most dangerous complications of #typhoid, and disproportionately affects children and adolescents.
A new study from #Nigeria shows how health care workforce shortages can impede TIP diagnosis and typhoid treatment: link.springer.com/article/10.118…

Some of the biggest public health threats are the ones you can't see. 🧐🦠
#TyphoidMary's story reminds us how easily #typhoid can spread through contaminated food and water, and why handwashing, safe water, sanitation, and vaccination remain essential tools for prevention.

"Drug-resistant bacteria don't carry a passport, and neither do the costs." ✈️💵
New research estimates that drug-resistant infections were linked to $3.5 trillion in economic losses in 2021.
Preventing #DrugResistance is both a public health priority and a smart investment.

Oct. 24 is #WorldPolioDay. What do polio and typhoid have in common?
Displaced populations -- refugees and others on the move because of armed conflict, climate effects or disasters -- are less likely to get routine vaccinations for diseases including polio and typhoid.
The es are recognizing the benefits of including those on the move in vaccination campaigns against infectious disease.

Having multiple #typhoid conjugate vaccine (TCV) products creates a healthier market and a stronger supply—ensuring more children have access. 💪💉
@WHO recently prequalified a 5th TCV product, EuTYPH-C Inj.® Multi-dose. More on why this matters 👇

Four countries introduced #typhoid conjugate vaccines (TCVs) with @gavi support in 2025, reaching more than 80M children through introduction campaigns. 👏
Celebrating our progress to #TakeOnTyphoid and other preventable diseases!
Celebrating our progress to #TakeOnTyphoid and other preventable diseases!
2025 put health systems under enormous pressure, from conflict and climate shocks to rising debt and unprecedented cuts to development assistance.
Yet amid that historic uncertainty, countries continued to expand protection against preventable disease, reach more children and n resources in immunisation.
Gavi’s latest Annual Progress Report captures the scale of that progress, and the work that still lies ahead.

Check out this new study investigating the mechanisms behind #typhoid infection ⤵️ #TakeOnTyphoid
1/ Bacteriophages, or phages, are viruses that infect bacteria. CHRF scientists have spent the past several years collecting and characterizing phages that infect Salmonella Typhi, the bacterium responsible for typhoid fever, from environmental water samples across Bangladesh.

Policy from the World Health Organization updated this summer advises countries to consider introducing a typhoid conjugate vaccine (TCV) booster dose close to 5 years of age in settings with very high typhoid incidence for children who received a primary dose of TCV between 9-24 months of age. Countries may also consider booster doses in settings where children receive a primary dose of TCV younger than 23 months, especially areas with a high case fatality ratio or very high prevalence of drug resistance.
Booster doses are especially valuable in areas with very high typhoid incidence because they reinforce protection for children who receive TCV at a young age.

The health risks of #ClimateChange are not evenly distributed. 🌎🌧️
Many communities experiencing floods, extreme heat, or other disruptions also have the fewest resources to respond, the weakest surveillance systems, and the greatest burden of infectious diseases like #typhoid.
