No excuse for inaction: #EndTobacco to prevent epidemics of diseases and deaths This article is for 2020 World No Tobacco Day.

Blunting of AIDS epidemic: It's time for zero-complacency and stronger action Please consider the below article based on insights by key leaders who have contributed over 20-30 years in the fight against AIDS. We have made a significant progress indeed in helping millions of people living with HIV lead a normal healthy life and reducing AIDS deaths - but this is not enough as new infections are happening and even one AIDS death, is a death too many. Last mile needs stronger action, not complacency

This article is in response to the recent launch of national vehicle scrappage policy in the name of road safety, protecting environment, reducing economic inequities, and circular economy. But these goals can only be truly delivered by a robust and strong public transport system (not by replacing old cars with new ones) that meets the need of everyone, rich and poor alike.
