AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Public Health & Trust: The Ministry of Health has shut down WhatsApp rumors about a suspected Hantavirus case in St. Vincent and the Grenadines, saying there are no suspected or confirmed cases and no one has been quarantined or isolated for Hantavirus concerns; officials say surveillance remains active at airports and seaports and urge people to share only verified health updates. Violence & Community Safety: Two separate fatal incidents are under investigation—Union Island after a 26-year-old woman died following an altercation, and Campden Park after a woman was stabbed multiple times, with police arresting the lone suspect. Health Services & Access to Care: A regional workshop in Saint Lucia will focus on improving access to safe, quality-assured medicines and health technologies across OECS, including stronger procurement and supply systems. HIV & Sexual Health Data: Over 900 positive HIV cases have been recorded in SVG over 40 years, with syphilis statistics also shared during a male sexual and reproductive health roundtable. Eye Care & Prevention: The Lions Club Kingstown-SVG and U.S. specialists are running a free “Eye Care For U” clinic with screenings, referrals, and planned surgical support at SVGCC and through outreach to schools and care homes. Food Security & Nutrition: Still Kickin’ Charity donated vegetable, herb, and flower seeds to the Zero Hunger Trust Fund to support backyard gardening and household food security. Climate & Health Risks: The Red Cross is urging extra precautions amid extreme heat, Sahara dust, and drought—hydration, limiting sun exposure, protecting people with asthma, and conserving water. Youth, Skills & Workforce: Sandals’ Student Hospitality Etiquette and Service Excellence Programme is being promoted as a pathway to tourism jobs and practical workplace readiness, while UWI Global Campus recognized adults completing short professional courses. Diplomacy & Health Cooperation: New SVG Ambassador Kenton X. Chance presented credentials in Taiwan, with both sides pointing to cooperation in smart agriculture, smart healthcare, and sustainable tourism.
