Excellent initiative! Behind the main scene there are people who also put the shoulder. With the effort at all, all goals are achieved!

People behind #WHA67 - Rosalia, cleaner
“It’s only the second day of the Assembly for the delegates but the… More cleaning team has been getting ready for at least a month. Just like at home, we do a Spring clean of the Palais des Nations [UN headquarters in Geneva] every year to make sure the building looks at its best for the big meetings. I’ve been working here for 21 years. During the Assembly I start at 5.30 am. Between vacuum cleaning, dusting and taking out considerably larger rubbish loads, I also make sure there are always fresh jugs of water in the Assembly Hall so delegates can easily reach for something to drink.”

I would like to see some billing staff/billing issues being discussed. I feel like this is a big part of any health organization and we're often overlooked.
