Huntington's disease successfully treated for first time One of the most devastating diseases finally has a treatment that can slow its progression and transform lives, tearful doctors tell BBC.

In the early years of my PhD I remember being asked if we'd ever treat or cure diseases like HIV or Huntington's. I remember saying maybe, but not knowing if I believed. Seeing research pay off as real impact on human lives is - incredible.

How traditional rulers are boosting immunisation uptake in northern Nigeria Traditional monarchs in northern Nigerian states are partnering up with national public health organisations to get more children protected. It’s working.

"My people respect me, and as soon as they see me with the team, they allow their children to be immunised." In northern Nigeria, trusted local leaders are walking door-to-door, leading vaccination campaigns, and yielding real results for vaccine uptake. bit.ly/43dZLby

50 years of progress: how Bangladesh chose health Less than half a century after being labelled a β€œbasketcase”, Bangladesh is on the way to independently financing its immunisation programme.

In 1979, only 2% of Bangladeshi children were vaccinated. Today, 98% receive DTP3 and 93% are vaccinated against measles.

Bangladesh proves that when we invest in immunisation, we secure the future of generations. bit.ly/4kBJhQt
