AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

TB Security & Policy: Grenada’s Health Minister says two TB patients who escaped the General Hospital isolation unit have been found by police and returned to medical supervision, after forcing open a secured gate; officials note TB is treatable and urge anyone with close contact to seek free screening. Dengue Alert: The Ministry of Health reports a rise in dengue cases, with 23 new cases in 16–22 August, most affecting ages 25–44, and is scaling up vector control while reminding households to remove stagnant water and protect against bites. Community Nutrition: The Grenada Food and Nutrition Council launches a hypertension self-monitoring and nutrition awareness programme, providing validated blood pressure monitors, recipes, and follow-up support to help residents manage high blood pressure. Regional Clinical Capacity: PAHO/WHO and partners run a simulation-based critical care training for severe infections across Eastern Caribbean countries, including Grenada, to strengthen pandemic and respiratory epidemic response. Water & Waste Planning: Grenada will host the 35th CWWA conference on water security, climate resilience, wastewater and solid waste management, with local co-hosts NAWASA and GSWMA. Health System Accountability: A debate is sparked over the Chief Medical Officer’s performance after TB escapes, with calls for stronger legislation to address communicable disease breaches.
