Now that our #ISSAD2026 delegates are back home and settled into their routines, we want to say a huge THANK YOU for making the 4th International Symposium on Streptoccocus agalactiae disease so impactful.

#GBS #ISSAD2026

Day 2’s sessions shifted the focus to the GBS vaccine pipeline and the complex policy frameworks required to ensure global access.

The energy among our 37-country delegation remained high as we moved into the final day of the symposium!🔬

"Collaboration is the bridge between policy & impact."

We were honoured to host Ms MARY MUTHONI, CBS, HSC., Principal Secretary in the State Department for Public Health (@MOH_Kenya), at our gala dinner.

Plenary 5 at #ISSAD2026 has taken us From Evidence to Action, moving beyond the lab to talk about how we actually reach the mothers & babies who need these vaccines most.

Because a vaccine only works if it's accessible, sustainable, & safe for everyone.

#ISSAD #GlobalHealth

The science of GBS vaccines is advancing rapidly, but how do we implement them? In Plenary 4, we look at the evidence and economics behind the rollout.
