AGP Executive Report

Last update: 8 hours ago

Anti-migrant tensions, misinformation denied: With South Africa’s anti-immigrant protests sparking online claims, Botswana and Tanzania have denied retaliatory moves against South Africa, including false posts about border closures and electricity cut-offs. Livestock health support: Isuzu launched a R250,000 relief campaign for farmers hit by foot-and-mouth disease, running to May 30 as government targets 80% herd vaccination by December. Pandemic preparedness warning: A WHO report says global readiness is failing to keep up with rising outbreak risk, with climate change, mobility and conflict pushing threats faster than health systems can respond. Regional animal disease push: South Africa and Botswana also backed a wider livestock vaccine drive, including plans for a Southern African vaccine bank and shared disease-control protocols. Botswana health context: Coverage this week also highlights wider public-health strain across the region, from HIV prevention gaps to medicine and supply shortages.
