AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Healthcare Workforce: The Ministry of Health and Wellness launched Belize’s Human Resources for Health Policy and a 2026–2030 Strategic Plan, aiming to fix recruitment, training, deployment, and retention of health workers nationwide. Public Procurement Watch: Cabinet fast-tracked a major overhaul of Belize’s procurement rules after scrutiny over government payments and links to Minister Oscar Mira’s relatives. Cost of Care: Belize’s May inflation stayed at 4.3%, with healthcare costs up sharply—medical services, hospitalization, and surgical procedures were among the biggest drivers. Dental Training: A new Magazine Dental Academy opened in Belize City, offering a one-year dental hygiene program designed to expand the local pipeline of hygienists. Community Health Support: Texas doctors are in Belize City for free checkups at ITVET, including blood pressure, blood sugar screening, kidney/diabetes checks, and EKGs. Food Safety & Health: A regional meeting in Mexico strengthened cooperation to fight New World screwworm and improve residue monitoring in milk and meat. Security & Health System Pressure: Police investigated a Lords Bank Village shooting that sent three men to hospital, and another case saw a Belize City man accused of setting his common-law wife on fire remain on remand.
