AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Obesity as a medical diagnosis: St. Kitts health officials say WHO data shows adult obesity at 45.6%, urging people to treat it like a condition—not a cultural joke—using BMI as a risk tool and noting classes up to morbid obesity. Water security boost: PM Drew inspected the Basseterre Desalination Plant, aimed at 24-hour clean water for about 70% of the population, alongside wells and upgraded distribution. Electricity reconnection help: SKELEC launched “Reconnect 15” for disconnected customers, letting eligible people pay 15% of the outstanding balance plus a reduced reconnection fee to restore service during August. MRI facility nearing completion: The new MRI at Joseph N. France General Hospital is in final construction steps, with key work including electrical upgrades, air-conditioning adjustments, and a Faraday cage before commissioning. Medicinal cannabis track-and-trace: The Medicinal Cannabis Authority secured a Seed-to-Sale Track and Trace System to monitor cultivation through retail, aiming to prevent diversion and protect product purity. Community health engagement: PM Drew invited residents to a consultation on the proposed Conaree Health Centre on Aug. 6. Wellness event in Nevis: Film Focus Nevis partnered with Helen’s Daughters for a wellness-themed documentary screening and panel on plant-based healing and rural women’s agri-work.
