AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

NC-SARA Education Boost: Beckfield College just got approved to expand eligible online/distance programs across participating states—good news for students who need flexible learning with consumer protections. Health Safety at Home: A new EWG sunscreen guide says only about 20% of tested products are both safe and effective, pushing shoppers toward broad UVA/UVB protection (and away from misleading “100+” claims). Local Health Watch: VI officials are monitoring a reported hantavirus cluster tied to a cruise vessel outside the Caribbean, but say the risk to the VI remains low while surveillance ramps up. Care Access Pressure: A St. Thomas woman was arrested in an alleged elder abuse and financial exploitation case involving her mother with Alzheimer’s. Territory Logistics: Delegate Stacey Plaskett is pressing federal and Puerto Rico authorities over docking restrictions affecting Water Spirit Freight, raising concerns for island-to-island goods movement. Public Health Tools: Visby and RAINN launched a free at-home STI testing program for sexual assault survivors, starting with 1,000 tests in underserved areas (including the VI). Violence Update: Police are investigating a fatal shooting of Luciano A. Warrell Jr. in Estate Tutu.
