On #WorldNoTobaccoDay, my message is clear: Europe must protect young people from tobacco and nicotine addiction. Our goal remains a tobacco and nicotine-free generation by 2040.

Yesterday, I addressed the 80th anniversary of antibiotics production in Kundl 🇦🇹 - one of Europe’s key antibiotic manufacturing sites. Antibiotics are the backbone of modern medicine. Securing their supply is essential for patients and Europe's health security. https://t.co/NvRICt5HZX #Antibiotics #Healthcare #Europe #AT

Very good exchange organised by the European House @Ambrosetti_ in Florence 🇮🇹 It is undisputed: to keep our health systems sustainable, prevention cannot remain undervalued. We also agreed that innovation is reshaping diagnostics, treatment & care and 🇪🇺 must lead this process. https://t.co/JdTIENBj5Y #HealthInnovation #SustainableHealthcare #PreventiveHealth #IT #EU

During #EuropeanWeekAgainstCancer, I met the Association of 🇪🇺 @CancerLeagues to discuss tobacco control framework in cancer prevention. New tobacco and nicotine products are putting young people at risk. Our rules must keep pace to protect future generations & prevent cancer. https://t.co/oNrNnQZTcv #CancerPrevention #TobaccoControl #YouthHealth #EU

Good meeting with Prime Minister @AndrejBabis 🇨🇿 We discussed the future of European healthcare systems & the strategic role of prevention - from cancer and cardiovascular diseases to stronger, more resilient health systems. Prevention must become a core investment in 🇪🇺 future. https://t.co/A8xeRSkgtd #EuropeanHealthcare #Prevention #HealthSystems #CZ #EU

During a guided tour with MMCI Director Marek Svoboda, I saw the state-of-the-art facilities of the new Cancer Prevention Centre in Brno 🇨🇿 With technologies from photon CT and MRI to AI-supported whole-body skin scanning, the Centre can become a model for others in 🇪🇺 to follow. https://t.co/He0Wsj8ZYE #CancerPrevention #Brno #HealthcareInnovation #CZ #EU

Supported by over €20m from 🇨🇿 Recovery Plan @eu_next, this Centre brings together cancer research, prevention and care under one roof. Around 40% of cancer cases could be prevented. Investing in prevention & early detection gives people a stronger chance against the disease. #CancerResearch #PreventionMatters #EarlyDetection #CZ

The registry gives us robust, comparable data to identify disparities and guide targeted action at EU and national level. Our goal remains clear: turn evidence into action - so that everyone in Europe has access to early detection, diagnosis and high-quality cancer care. #CancerCare #HealthEquity #EarlyDetection #EU #Europe

🎗️Ahead of European Week Against Cancer, I delivered opening remarks at the @EU_Commission webinar on reducing cancer inequalities. The European Cancer Inequalities Registry shows where gaps remain - from vaccination to timely diagnosis and treatment. https://t.co/3tDA7Qclhq #CancerAwareness #HealthEquity #EuropeanWeekAgainstCancer #EU

Good introductory exchange with Dr Haichao Lei, Minister of China’s National Health Commission on health priorities and challenges including on global health, infectious diseases, food security & animal health. https://t.co/24o7sSocmY #GlobalHealth #InfectiousDiseases #FoodSecurity #CN

To effectively protect citizens, exit screening in affected areas and reinforced capacities in healthcare settings (incl. immediate isolation where needed, raising awareness among healthcare professionals & strong infection prevention in Member States) will be essential. #PublicHealth #InfectionPrevention #HealthcareAwareness #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Today, with @EU_Health DG @SandraGallina, we met @ECDC_EU Director Pamela @rendiwagner & @EMA_News Executive Director Emer Cooke to take stock of the Ebola outbreak. We are closely monitoring developments, coordinating with Member States, incl. in the Health Security Committee. https://t.co/bM88RWCKEw #Ebola #HealthSecurity #EUHealth #EU #DE #AT

Today’s debate shows more than ever that we need to move quickly on the Health Package. With the #BiotechAct, medical devices reform and #SafeHeartsPlan, we can build a stronger, more resilient health ecosystem that delivers for patients. #BiotechAct #SafeHeartsPlan #HealthPackage #Therearenospecificcountriesmentionedinthetweetyouprovided.Therefore #theresultisanemptystring.

Patients across 🇪🇺 should have access to the medicines they need, when they need them. At tonight’s @Europarl_EN debate, I highlighted the tools we are putting in place - from the #CriticalMedicinesAct to the pharma reform & Biotech Act - to strengthen Europe’s resilience. https://t.co/G8pjUtPVBI #HealthCare #PharmaReform #EuropeResilience #EU

Vaccination is an essential science-based tool for prevention. It should not be seen as a weakness, nor become a barrier to trade. It is part of a modern and responsible approach to animal health. #Vaccination #AnimalHealth #ScienceBased #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Recent outbreaks show that animal health threats are becoming more frequent, less predictable and more interconnected. We must use all tools at our disposal: strong veterinary services, surveillance, biosecurity, disease control measures and vaccination. #AnimalHealth #VeterinaryServices #Biosecurity #Therearenospecificcountrycodesinthetweetprovided.

On #EuropeanCancerNursingDay, we honour cancer nurses who support patients through diagnosis, treatment, recovery and life beyond cancer. Your expertise and compassion make a difference every day. #ECND26 #EuropeanCancerNursingDay https://t.co/rQTS5kQZhz #ECND26 #CancerNursing #NurseAppreciation #Thetweetdoesnotspecificallymentionanycountries.Itreferences"European"inthecontextofadaydedicatedtocancernursingbutdoesnotspecifyanyparticularcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

universal access to high-quality healthcare, combined with access to the best available innovation. The implementation of the #EHDS, pharma reform and the #CriticalMedicinesAct will be key to deliver this. #HealthcareForAll #InnovationInHealthcare #PharmaReform #Thetweetdoesnotmentionanyspecificcountries.Therefore #therearenocountrycodestoreturn.

Cooperation with key partners, including the United States, remains essential to tackling shared global health challenges and supporting stability and prosperity. A strong, competitive European healthcare ecosystem is key to this effort. Read more ⬇️ https://t.co/g95j3OReRi #GlobalHealth #HealthcareInnovation #InternationalCooperation #US #EU

Today, the @EU_Commission adopted the Global Health Resilience Initiative 🇪🇺🌍 This initiative strengthens global health resilience, helping partners prevent and respond to health threats while advancing the health sovereignty of our partners. https://t.co/R863JNw0e7 #GlobalHealth #HealthResilience #EUStrength #EU

Now, with the #BiotechAct, medical devices reform and the pharmaceutical package, we want to accelerate innovation and improve access to new diagnostics and therapies for rare and complex conditions. ➡️ Rare should never mean invisible. #RareDiseases #BiotechInnovation #HealthcareAccess #Nospecificcountrycodesarementionedinthetweet.

Rare diseases may each affect few patients, but together they impact millions of families across 🇪🇺. We must strengthen awareness, research & cooperation. European Reference Networks connect expertise across Member States. The EU has invested €3.2bn in rare disease research. ⤵️ #RareDiseases #HealthResearch #EURareDiseases #EU

Good exchange today with Health Ministers and @ECDC_EU on the ongoing #Hantavirus outbreak. Close coordination, information sharing and coordinated measures are essential to protect citizens and ensure an effective European response. Thank you @stephanie_rist for hosting. https://t.co/uo4ud76HAP #Hantavirus #HealthMinisters #ECDC #EU
