Cancer spotlight in the spotlight: Irish Olympian Ciara Mageean opened up in an RTE interview about her cancer diagnosis and what it’s like to face mortality—describing love, fear, and the uncertainty of whether she’ll “grow old” with her partner. Local health access logistics: Costa Rica’s MOPT will run a no-appointment practical driving test at the National Stadium on June 17 (2 p.m.–10 p.m.), aiming to cut waiting times and requiring a recent medical certificate plus ID and payment proof. Health-tech manufacturing in Costa Rica: Rhythmlink inaugurated a new neurodiagnostic production facility in El Coyol, Alajuela, to scale continuous brain monitoring components for international clinical use. Conservation with a health angle: Reserva Conchal launched a bee genetics pilot in Guanacaste to strengthen pollinators against disease and extreme weather—protecting ecosystems that underpin food and livelihoods. Ongoing migration scrutiny: Costa Rica received four U.S. deportation flights in 2026 (about 95 people total), renewing questions about housing and screening as the program continues.
