AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

Foot-and-mouth disease: Namibia confirmed FMD at a commercial farm in the ǁKharas Region, including 10 positive cattle samples, and immediately suspended movement of cloven-hoofed animals and their products, plus halted imports and exports. Paediatric care: Windhoek Central Hospital inaugurated Namibia’s first dedicated public paediatric ICU, funded with about N$28 million, aiming to cut child ICU deaths to below 2.5%. HIV prevention: Kavango East launched a campaign for the newly introduced PrEP injection, targeting about 200 people in risk groups. Malaria: Kavango West reported malaria cases rising to 24,360 from January–September (up 2,360 from last year) while deaths fell to three. Public health & environment: Windhoek residents demanded improved waste management as illegal dumping and uncollected refuse threaten health; Karibib also faces a mosquito surge linked to leaking sewage pipes. Disability rights: NOYD urged Namibia to make deaf rights real in healthcare, education, justice and information, citing interpreter shortages. Workplace policy: Unions renewed calls for statutory paternity leave as maternity and other Social Security Commission benefits increase from 1 October.
