SHOTLIST
1. Wide shot, WHO headquarters exteriors
2. Various shots, World Health Assembly participants
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“As you know, just under three weeks ago I declared an end to COVID-19 as a public health emergency of international concern. It was a moment of relief and reflection. It’s encouraging to see life return to normal – to be able to hug a friend, to travel freely, and to meet together.”
4. Wide shot, World Health Assembly audience
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“The pandemic has confronted us with unprecedented challenges. And it has also demonstrated what your WHO is capable of... what our WHO is capable of. Throughout the pandemic, your WHO has mobilized global expertise to provide technical and logistical tools to support you in your efforts to save lives.”
6. Wide shot, World Health Assembly audience
7. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“Through the ACT Accelerator, WHO and our partners delivered nearly two billion doses of COVID-19 vaccine, as well as tests, therapeutics, oxygen, PPE, and other medical supplies. The end of COVID-19 as a global health emergency is not the end of COVID as a global health threat.”
8. Wide shot, Ghebreyesus addresses the Assembly
9. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“In a world of overlapping and converging crises, an effective architecture for health emergency preparedness and response must address emergencies of all kinds. This year’s High-Level Meeting on Pandemic Preparedness and Response is a valuable opportunity for leaders to chart a clear path forward towards that future. We cannot kick this can down the road.”
10. Med shot, Ghebreyesus addresses the Assembly
11. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“Strong primary health care is especially vital for delivering life-saving services maternal and child health, including routine immunization. Between 2019 and 2021, an estimated 67 million children missed out on at least one essential vaccine, including 48 million children who missed out entirely.”
12. Wide shot, Ghebreyesus addresses the Assembly
13. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“In response, WHO and our partners have launched “The Big Catch-up”, a global effort to increase vaccination levels in children to at least pre-pandemic levels by the end of this year, and to protect those who missed out.”
14. Med shot, Ghebreyesus addresses the Assembly
15. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“In 2022, 48percent of children below 6 months were exclusively breastfed, getting close to the target of 50percent set by the World Health Assembly.”
16. Wide shot, Ghebreyesus addresses the Assembly
17. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“And we continue to support research to improve care for pregnant women. Last year, WHO reviewed evidence from trials in 20 countries that showed for the first time that immediate skin-to-skin care, or kangaroo mother care, can save almost one third of children born preterm.”
18. Med shot, journalists covering the Assembly
19. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“And following WHO’s recommendation for widespread use of the RTS,S malaria vaccine in 2021, more than 1.5 million children have now received it in Ghana, Kenya and Malawi. Among those vaccinated, we see a 30percent reduction in severe malaria, and a 10percent drop in child deaths. We estimate that one death is prevented for every 200 children vaccinated. Put simply, this vaccine is changing the course of malaria.”
20. Med shot, journalists covering the Assembly
21. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“Vaccines have extinguished smallpox, pushed polio to near eradication, and tamed multiple other diseases. And vaccines are bringing the dream of eliminating cervical cancer within reach. Since WHO’s Call to Action to eliminate cervical cancer in 2018, nearly fifty more countries introduced the HPV vaccine into their national immunization programs, including 41 lower-middle income countries.”
22. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
23. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“In addition to COVID-19 and mpox, last year WHO responded to 70 graded health emergencies from floods in Pakistan, to Ebola in Uganda, the war in Ukraine, cholera outbreaks in more than 30 countries and complex emergencies in the greater Horn of Africa, Northern Ethiopia and the Sahel.”
24. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
25. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“A crucial enabler of our response was the Contingency Fund for Emergencies, which was established following the West African Ebola outbreak in 2014 and 2015. Last year, the CFE released almost 90 million US dollars in as little as 24 hours to support the rapid response to emergencies. Already this year we have allocated more than 37 million dollars to fund our response to the earthquakes in the Syrian Arab Republic and Türkiye, the conflict in Sudan and more.”
26. Med shot, journalists covering the event
27. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“The end of COVID-19 and mpox as public health emergencies of international concern means polio remains the only official global health emergency. After an all-time low of 5 wild poliovirus cases in 2021, we saw an increase last year, with 20 cases in Pakistan, two in Afghanistan and eight in Mozambique. So far this year, there have been three reported cases of wild polio virus, including one from Pakistan and two from Afghanistan just last week. WHO and our partners remain steadfastly committed to finishing the job of consigning polio to history. Last year, 3 million children previously inaccessible in Afghanistan received polio vaccines for the first time.”
28. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
29. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“The mRNA Hub in South Africa is a perfect example, as part of our commitment to strengthen local production and enhance pandemic preparedness and response globally.”
30. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
31. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“The Hub has now started transferring technology to manufacturers in 15 countries, supported by the biomanufacturing training hub in the Republic of Korea, which has trained 300 staff in low- and middle-income countries. The mRNA Technology Transfer Programme holds huge promise, not just for vaccines against COVID-19, but also for other diseases including HIV, tuberculosis, malaria and more.”
32. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
33. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):
“In so many ways and in so many places, your WHO is working to promote, provide, protect, power and perform for health. The five Ps.”
34. Wide shot, audience in the Assembly
35. SOUNDBITE (English) Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, Director-General, World Health Organization (WHO):

STORYLINE
The Director-General of the World Health Organization (WHO), Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, presented his annual report to Member States at the 76th World Health Assembly, saying that the end of COVID-19 as a public health emergency of international concern is “a moment of relief and reflection.”
Addressing the Assembly in Geneva on Monday (22 May), Ghebreyesus noted that “it’s encouraging to see life return to normal – to be able to hug a friend, to travel freely, and to meet together.”
“The pandemic has confronted us with unprecedented challenges. And it has also demonstrated what your WHO is capable of... what our WHO is capable of. Throughout the pandemic, your WHO has mobilized global expertise to provide technical and logistical tools to support you in your efforts to save lives,” said WHO’s chief.
Ghebreyesus highlighted that, through the ACT Accelerator, WHO and its partners delivered nearly two billion doses of COVID-19 vaccine, as well as tests, therapeutics, oxygen, PPE, and other medical supplies.
He also noted that “the end of COVID-19 as a global health emergency is not the end of COVID as a global health threat” and “in a world of overlapping and converging crises, an effective architecture for health emergency preparedness and response must address emergencies of all kinds.”
According to the Director-General, this year’s High-Level Meeting on Pandemic Preparedness and Response is “a valuable opportunity for leaders to chart a clear path forward towards that future. We cannot kick this can down the road.”
Ghebreyesus informed Member States that, between 2019 and 2021, an estimated 67 million children missed out on at least one essential vaccine, including 48 million children who missed out entirely.
In response to that, he said, WHO and its partners have launched “The Big Catch-up”, “a global effort to increase vaccination levels in children to at least pre-pandemic levels by the end of this year, and to protect those who missed out.”
Still addressing children’s health, Ghebreyesus said that, in 2022, 48 percent of children below 6 months were exclusively breastfed, getting close to the target of 50 percent set by the World Health Assembly.
