Health Update Bahamas

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Impetigo Watch: Seven new cases have been reported in New Providence and Grand Bahama, but health officials say infections are declining. Fewer than 70 cases were reported in recent weeks; officials urge families to stay vigilant after outbreaks prompted school closures. Mental Health: The Ministry of Health and partners are working on a national action plan, drawing on community voices and lived experience at a recent symposium. Prison Healthcare: National Security Minister Myles Laroda says an inmate who died after being hospitalized received adequate care. His sister has disputed that account, alleging he was denied proper medication.
