AGP Executive Report

Last update: an hour ago

COVID-19 in Schools: Lower Corentyne Secondary School in Rose Hall (Region 6) reported a cluster of COVID-19 cases, with more than 10 students testing positive over a week; school activities were temporarily suspended for fumigation and sanitisation, and parents and students were urged to restart strict precautions like mask-wearing. More COVID-19 Alerts: Another Berbice school situation is emerging after five students at Lower Corentyne Secondary tested positive (asymptomatic), prompting renewed sanitisation and precautionary steps. Women’s Health Push: Guyanese US-based pharma developer Dr Niven Narain says he will use his US$35,000 Anthony N. Sabga Award to launch mobile women’s health units in Georgetown and Miami, starting with “Women’s Health on Wheels” for working mothers. Hinterland Healthcare Access: The Ministry of Health delivered medical supplies to Moraikobai Health Centre via drone technology, aiming to cut delays for remote riverine communities. Lead Safety Research: Mercer University’s lead-detection method for new oil-based paint has been approved as an international standard, helping keep lead paint off shelves—especially important for protecting children. Elder Support: Human Services and Social Security outlined a plan for seniors including community hubs, a new senior citizens’ home, digital literacy, and an elderly safety programme. Road Safety Tragedy: A teacher, Tineka Hicks, died after a minibus crash on the Diamond New Interlink Road during heavy rainfall; six others were injured and taken to Diamond Regional Hospital.
