AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Power & Health Services: Bahamas Power and Light says Sunday’s New Providence outages were triggered by an extraordinary lightning strike that damaged a critical link between generation and the grid at Blue Hills Power Station, delaying safe restoration until teams confirmed conditions were safe. Public Health Response: The Ministry of Health & Wellness (EPI) is rolling out a National Summer Vaccination Catch-Up Campaign across July and August, with Saturday clinics in New Providence and planned Family Island sites, aiming to lift key childhood and adolescent vaccine coverage to at least 95%. NHI Stability: NHIA Deputy Chairman Dr. Robin Roberts says the programme is under financial pressure due to timely payment issues, but insists NHI will not default on payments to providers. Community Health & Safety: A Punta Gorda overdose awareness 5K and remembrance walk is set for Aug. 29, with organisers distributing Narcan to finishers to help reverse opioid overdoses. Health System Strain in the Spotlight: Health Minister Dr. Michael Darville reports the hardest-hit area during the blackout was an older medical ward at Princess Margaret Hospital. Regional Health Development: A UN mission to The Bahamas highlighted health as a driver of national development, stressing that wellbeing starts beyond clinics and depends on partnerships, disaster resilience, and community conditions.
