☀️ Sunscreen is not a luxury—it's protection!

A 10-year Australian study shows that daily SPF use cuts melanoma risk in half. Here’s how to do it right:

Use SPF 30+, water-resistant.

Reapply every 2 hours (more if swimming).

Don’t forget your ears, lips, feet & back!

🧴 Zinc/titanium-based sunscreens are ideal for sensitive skin.

👕 Shade, hats, & public efforts like free sunscreen dispensers can save lives.

📈 Global vaccine coverage is rising—but challenges remain.

According to WHO & UNICEF (2024):

89% of infants got 1st dose of DPT, 85% completed the series.

131 countries achieved 90%+ first-dose coverage.

Measles coverage reached 84% (1st dose), 76% (2nd dose).

⚠️ However, 47 countries are struggling to maintain progress.

🚨 Global focus is needed to sustain and recover immunization rates, especially post-pandemic.

📢 India cuts zero-dose children rate nearly by half!

Thanks to robust vaccination campaigns and digital tools like U-WIN, India reduced zero-dose prevalence from 0.11% in 2023 to 0.06% in 2024. This milestone underscores our country’s commitment to equitable immunization, especially in underserved populations.

🏆 International recognition highlights India’s leadership in child health.

💊⚠️ DoxyPEP may not be the shield we hoped for.
Global research shows tetracycline resistance in gonorrhea is rising fast — especially in East Asia, sub-Saharan Africa, and now the U.S.
🧬 The message is clear: Don't rely on doxyPEP for gonorrhea prevention.
We need stronger AMR surveillance and smarter STI strategies.

🚜🧹 India goes green, village by village!
The govt just launched Swachh Survekshan Grameen 2025, the largest rural sanitation survey ever — covering 21,000 villages in 761 districts.
With Jan Bhagidari (public feedback) at its heart, this isn’t just about ranking… it’s about rethinking rural cleanliness.
