AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 minutes ago

Dengue Response: A local lab cut dengue test wait times from one to two months to under a week during the territory’s 2024–25 outbreak, which caused 263 confirmed cases and one death. The CDC says faster testing helps doctors and health officials track the virus. Farm Community Mental Health: A multistate survey that included U.S. Virgin Islands agricultural educators found most recognized suicide warning signs among farming families, and many wanted more mental health training. Health Workforce: Ghana and the USVI plan to sign a recruitment agreement in November to bring Ghanaian nurses and teachers to the territory. Numbers, qualifications and job terms have not yet been announced. Outbreak Preparedness: Drills at healthcare facilities, including in the USVI, tested responses to simulated avian flu cases. Staff often screened patients, but only 9.6% of drills included questions about avian flu exposure, pointing to gaps in readiness.
