AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Vaccine Trial Cancelled: Guinea-Bissau has cancelled a proposed U.S.-funded hepatitis B vaccine study involving 14,000 newborns after public health experts condemned plans to delay the WHO-recommended birth dose for half the babies. Health Minister Quinhin Nantote said the government had not approved the study, and police seized vaccines from the Bandim Health Project research centre.
