Text Quotes
We cannot think of the old days when we were dealing with SARS. It’s a totally different ballgame now. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
HIV AIDS is a disease with stigma. And we have learned with experience, not just with HIV AIDS but with other diseases, countries for many reasons are sometimes hesitant to admit they have a problem (Margaret Chan Quotes)
The way I look at - speaking as a woman - I understand what it means to be a daughter, and to be a wife, and to be a mother, and also to be a career woman. The multiple roles that women can play in a society if given the opportunity is really a tremendous asset (Margaret Chan Quotes)
I want us to be judged by the impact we have on the health of the people of Africa and the health of women. Improvements in the health of the people of Africa and the health of women are key indicators of the performance of WHO. This is a health organization for the whole world... But we must focus our attention on the people in greatest need (Margaret Chan Quotes)
All experts on WHO advisory groups for developing norms, standards and guidelines are required to disclose interests regarding the advisory committee’s area of work. If a declared interest is potentially significant, then the expert is either excluded from the meeting or given a restricted role (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Antimicrobial resistance is on the rise in Europe and elsewhere in the world. We are losing our first-line antimicrobials. Replacement treatments are more costly, more toxic, need much longer durations of treatment, and may require treatment in intensive care units (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Some experts say we are moving back to the pre-antibiotic era. No. This will be a post-antibiotic era. In terms of new replacement antibiotics, the pipeline is virtually dry. A post-antibiotic era means, in effect, an end to modern medicine as we know it. Things as common as strep throat or a child’s scratched knee could once again kill (Margaret Chan Quotes)
We need to empower women. Give women a voice in the decision-making process. Give women a political voice where they can champion, for their own welfare. And, of course, for us. United Nations - organizations, agencies - we need to do our part (Margaret Chan Quotes)
New diseases like SARS and bird flu cause anxiety in the community. People get worried, some to the extent that it even affects their health. You feel very sad, and yet you must carry on and maintain your cool in very trying and difficult moments. You have to tough it out (Margaret Chan Quotes)
When you’re dealing with new and emerging diseases, you have no idea and you can’t predict in advance what would happen. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
A health system that lacks commodities for managing high-mortality infectious diseases and the main killers of mothers and young children will not have an adequate impact. By the same token, even the best-stocked delivery system will have an inadequate impact if it fails to reach the poor (Margaret Chan Quotes)
The International Health Partnership Plus is addressing the need to harmonize development assistance and reduce the current waste, duplication, and high transaction costs. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
WHO has a country office in nearly every developing country, usually located close to the Ministry of Health. Staff in these offices need to do much more to help ministries of health strengthen their national health plans and strategies and then negotiate with development partners to support these priorities and follow these plans. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Doctors and nurses, with their training and their experiences, they would be able to detect unusual patterns of disease. That’s why we say it is important for every country to have a proper surveillance system. The function of the surveillance system is to detect unusual patterns of diseases. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
I am personally overseeing changes that include the establishment of a global health emergency workforce. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
New and emerging infections keep coming back and the world needs a collective defense system, and that requires international cooperation and collaboration, in the name of global solidarity. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
The World Health Organization did a world health report in 2006. In the whole world about 60 countries are in dire situation in terms of having enough doctors. And many of these countries are in Sub-Saharan Africa. You know, that part of the world alone needs one million doctors. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Health system development is a key to effective detection, response, and control of any outbreak (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Maternal mortality health is a very sensitive indicator. All you need to look at is a country’s maternal mortality rate. That is a surrogate for whether the country’s health system is functioning. If it works for women, I’m sure it will work for men. (Margaret Chan Quotes)
For the first time in history we can track the evolution of a pandemic in real time. Influenza viruses are notorious for their rapid mutation and unpredictable behaviour (Margaret Chan Quotes)

... we hope to stop the transmission in six to nine months (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Mexico is a safe, as well as a beautiful and warmly gracious, place to visit (Margaret Chan Quotes)
Pandemic influenza is by nature an international issue; it requires an international solution (Margaret Chan Quotes)
The unique nature about the influenza virus is its great potential for changes, for mutation (Margaret Chan Quotes)
After all it really is all of humanity that is under threat during a pandemic (Margaret Chan Quotes)
