AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Mental Health Care Concerns: A public letter raises urgent questions about how mentally ill people are treated after high-profile violent incidents, including attacks on “Pansy,” a severe assault involving a market security guard, and a case where police fired six bullets at a man at Milton Cato Memorial Hospital—calling for better care, including upgrading the Mental Health Centre. Health Leadership Training: PAHO and the University of the West Indies marked the graduation of the third cohort of a Health Policy and Health Systems programme, training 11 leaders across the Caribbean, including St. Vincent and the Grenadines, to tackle workforce shortages and noncommunicable diseases. Health Security & Labs: SVG hosted its first national workshop on implementing the Biological Weapons Convention, with hands-on training at Milton Cato Memorial Hospital laboratories to strengthen biosafety, biosecurity, and reporting. Road Safety: Police are investigating a La Croix bus accident that injured the driver, conductor, and passengers, with some treated at Levi Latham Health Centre and others at Milton Cato Memorial Hospital. Animal Health & Food Safety: Nesting boxes were distributed to 20 poultry farmers to improve egg quality and shelf life under a CDB-funded pilot, alongside renewed biosecurity guidance. Bird Import Ban Lifted: SVG ended a 2011 ban on importing pet birds, citing improved lab testing and risk-based alignment with international animal health rules. Youth Health Engagement: The REACH project invited young people (18–24) to a virtual orientation on leadership and meaningful engagement to improve adolescent and youth health across the Windward Islands.
