Global Health Leader Rings in 2025 with Call to Action
Margaret Chan, former WHO director-general and Tsinghua University public health trailblazer, just dropped a New Year message hotter than your morning matcha latte. 🍵 In her address to CGTN viewers, she spotlighted 2024’s healthcare rollercoaster – from breakthrough innovations to ongoing battles against emerging diseases.
Collaboration > Competition
‘We’re all riding the same planet,’ Chan hinted, pushing for countries to share resources and tech like they’re trading TikTok hacks. Her prescription for 2025? A double dose of global teamwork and outside-the-box solutions to outsmart health crises.
Lunar New Year Hopes
As fireworks prep to light up skies for Chinese New Year, Chan’s wishlist includes more than red envelopes: ‘Imagine a world where vaccine equity flows faster than K-drama plot twists.’ 🌕✨ She’s betting on Gen-Z’s digital savvy to help build pandemic-proof systems.
Pro tip from the public health guru: ‘Next time you Zoom grandma, ask about her health app preferences – that’s how we bridge generations for better care.’ 👵📱
