AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Emergency Preparedness: A WHO- and Africa CDC-backed training in Cabo Verde is bringing together 34 health officials from Guinea-Bissau and four other Portuguese-speaking countries to strengthen outbreak and disaster response teams. Animal and Public Health: ECOWAS has relocated its Regional Animal Health Centre to Bissau, aiming to improve surveillance and control of zoonotic diseases across West Africa. Newborn Vaccination: Guinea-Bissau has cancelled a proposed hepatitis B vaccine trial involving 14,000 babies after ethical concerns over delaying a WHO-recommended birth dose; authorities said the study lacked approval, and police seized vaccine supplies.
