Last update: 10 hours ago

Robotic Cardiac Care: Guyana is set to perform a landmark remote robotic heart surgery from Georgetown to India, with President Ali calling it the longest-distance telesurgery in history and highlighting the SSI Mantra 3 system and India-based specialist support. Regional Health Workforce: Amid shifting Cuban medical cooperation, a report says 59 Cuban medical professionals are still working in Trinidad and Tobago, while questions remain about future Caribbean deployments. Public Safety & Accountability: Police say the Office of Professional Responsibility is investigating a Sophia shooting where a 19-year-old was reportedly hit after a pursuit tied to robbery allegations, with relatives later claiming mistaken identity. Workplace Health & Safety: A Rupununi miner died after a mining pit collapse at Chi Chi Backdam, prompting an investigation and renewed calls for stricter safety compliance. Disaster Response: Heavy rainfall continues to disrupt Region 9 access routes, with officials monitoring flooding and road/bridge overtopping that hampers supplies and emergency response. Health Research: A Guyanese doctoral student presented research at CARPHA on substance use during pregnancy and low birth weight, adding to regional maternal health discussions. Health System Context: The week also included debate on strengthening anti-money laundering enforcement and judicial training—important for protecting health funding and services from financial crime.
