4️⃣ While #IGWG5's text captures all Member State suggestions, the Bureau's #IGWG6 text aims to present a cleaner, more focused document – highlighting potential consensus areas to help finalise the text ahead of #WHA79 in May.

1️⃣ #IGWG6 is the last scheduled PABS negotiation before #WHA79. For the next 6️⃣ days, Member States will focus exclusively on operationalising the #PABS system – designed to ensure benefits in exchange for disease surveillance and pathogen data sharing.
