AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Weight-Loss Treatment: Costa Rica’s public health system is considering offering Ozempic and other weight-loss drugs, a move that could widen access to treatment for people with obesity. Breast Cancer Awareness: Seventy men in Costa Rica died of breast cancer from 2021 to 2025. Experts say men may delay seeking care because the disease is seen as rare; watch for chest lumps or other changes, even without pain. Health Worker Well-Being: A PAHO survey open until October 30 is gathering information from medical and nursing staff in Costa Rica and 16 other countries to help shape policies on workplace conditions and mental health. Climate and Health: Costa Rica is among five countries with targets to reduce black carbon, a source of air pollution linked to serious health harms, according to a global review of national climate plans.
