AGP Executive Report

Derelict-Vehicle Pressure: Opposition legislator Myron Walwyn is blasting the government over abandoned vehicles in District 6, saying officials have talked for months about land for storage and a removal programme but residents are still waiting—calling the mess an “eyesore” and a health and safety concern. Public Health Watch: The VI Ministry of Health says it’s monitoring a reported hantavirus cluster tied to a cruise vessel outside the Caribbean, but stresses the risk to the Virgin Islands remains low while port health teams stay on alert. STI Access: A new at-home STI test programme is rolling out via a Safe Access partnership aimed at reducing delays in care after sexual assault. Regional Health & Policy: In the BVI, the Health Minister says negotiations are nearing completion for a new BVIHSA CEO after 104 applicants, while healthcare workers continue pushing for salary relief. Health Policy Beyond the VI: A U.S. congressional committee voted to block federal marijuana rescheduling funding even as the Trump administration moves forward. Community & Safety: VIWMA says it cleared about 2,800 illegally dumped tires at the Mon Bijou bin site, warning the cleanup is only “half the battle.”
