MV Barima Salvage & Forensic Focus: Guyana’s Maritime Administration Department has begun seeking experienced marine salvage firms to recover the wreck of the MV Barima, now lying in soft mud about 13–15 metres deep, with poor visibility and strong currents; contractors must submit their technical plan showing how they’ll protect and document forensic material for the Commission of Inquiry and minimise environmental harm. Trauma Care Spotlight: Psychologist Dr. Telford Layne Jr. says the Barima disaster is driving acute grief, stress reactions and PTSD/complex PTSD, especially where trauma layers interact with earlier abuse, bereavement and institutional betrayal—warning that “closure” without accountability can worsen re-traumatisation. Murder Charges in Ferry Case: The captain and two crew members have been charged with murder and remanded over the July 18 capsizing, with dozens still missing and survivors receiving medical attention at local hospitals. Road Safety Update: Two men remain under medical observation after a late-night crash in New Amsterdam left them with head injuries and internal bleeding following a collision with a GPL utility pole. Maternal Support: Rotary Club of Garden City donated 25 maternity hampers to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation to support mothers and newborns during Maternal and Child Health month. School Footwear Safety: GNBS urged parents to buy properly labelled, standard-compliant footwear (GYS 9-4:2003) for safer, more comfortable return-to-school use. Guyana One Health Funding: The Ministry of Health and PAHO/WHO signed a US$1.78M agreement to advance the Guyana One Health project.
