Kenya is set to begin a nationwide rollout of lenacapavir, a long-acting HIV prevention injection that only needs to be given twice a year and has shown extremely high effectiveness in global trials. The first 21,000 doses have arrived through a partnership with the Global Fund, and the phased programme will start in 15 high-burden counties with more doses expected soon.

Researchers discovered that patients taking new GLP-1 weight-loss medications experienced reduced cravings along with a lower susceptibility to addiction. For individuals with existing substance use disorders, the risk of overdose dropped by 39%, and deaths linked to addiction were cut in half. These effects, seen across different addictive substances, were unprecedented for some of them.

In Brazil’s Piracicaba River, researchers found antibiotic residues building up in fish, but also identified a natural solution. The common aquatic plant Salvinia auriculata reduced contamination and genetic damage, pointing to a low-cost, nature-based way to improve water quality where advanced treatment is not feasible.

Lifting hundreds of millions out of poverty requires about $318 billion annually, which is only 0.3% of global GDP. New research shows this goal is achievable, as the amount is small compared to what the world spends on cosmetics or alcohol, proving that global equity is within our reach.
