AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Vaccine Trial Halted: A Danish researcher says the US-backed hepatitis B study in Guinea-Bissau will not proceed because the government did not grant approval. Judicial police seized vaccine doses from the Bandim Health Project during an investigation; officials stressed the seizure does not indicate a problem with vaccine quality or safety. The proposed trial would have left thousands of newborns without the vaccine for six weeks. Black Sea Shipwreck: NATO is adding surveillance and other assets to the Black Sea after attacks on commercial vessels, including the Guinea-Bissau-flagged HS Dignity, which sank off Bulgaria on October 13. Eleven crew members were reported missing. Youth Football: Guinea-Bissau’s withdrawal from the WAFU Zone A U-20 tournament prompted a revision to the fixtures.
