AGP Executive Report
Last update: 12 hours agoBreast Cancer Screening: Proqual Diagnostic Imaging and the Cancer Association of Namibia are expanding access to mammograms, including N$50,000 in scans for vulnerable women, half-price screenings for state patients and two free events in Windhoek. Nearly 2,000 people joined NHP’s inaugural Pink Run, which promoted screening and early detection. Hospital Capacity: The N$3.2 billion Havana hospital project is under scrutiny as delays and practical hurdles temper hopes for a facility designed to ease pressure on Windhoek’s crowded hospitals. Medicine Supply: The High Court set aside the medicines regulator’s rejection of an application to supply 140,000 antibiotic vials to the health ministry; the ruling resolves the legal dispute but does not itself confirm delivery. Mental Wellbeing: Capricorn Group employees and the environment ministry donated fruit trees to the Garden of Hope at Windhoek Mental Health Centre, supporting a space for patients’ wellbeing and recovery. Maternal and Child Health: Namibia mourns former First Lady Penehupifo Pohamba, a trained midwife remembered for championing maternal and child healthcare, HIV/AIDS awareness and women’s empowerment.
