AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Rice and Food Security: Research in Guinea-Bissau’s Oio region found that birds and bats fed on 87 rice-pest species, suggesting the two groups may complement each other in natural pest control. Hepatitis B Vaccine Trial: Guinea-Bissau cancelled a proposed U.S.-funded study involving 14,000 newborns after concerns that half would have their hepatitis B shots delayed until six weeks. The WHO recommends vaccination at birth. The government said it had not approved the study, and police seized vaccine supplies from the research centre.
