AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Dengue Travel Alert: The CDC updated its global travel notice after a spike in dengue cases among U.S. travelers returning from Costa Rica and other countries, urging bite prevention like repellent, long sleeves, and screened or air-conditioned sleeping areas. Longevity Spotlight (Costa Rica): A 119-year-old man in Sardinal on the Nicoya Peninsula—one of the world’s Blue Zones—says he’s seeking recognition as the world’s oldest person, with locals pointing to mineral-rich water, corn-and-bean meals, daily physical work, and strong family ties (verification pending). Vaping & Youth Health (Costa Rica): Costa Rica’s CCSS data show vaping-related disorder visits in 2025 heavily involved ages 10–19, while a key regulation is delayed until Aug 2027. Local Health & Access: Route 1 through Cambronero remains closed after a truck crash damaged a bridge, affecting travel between the Central Valley and Pacific regions. Community Health Governance: MarViva is pushing for Gulf of Nicoya communities to gain real decision-making power to protect fisheries and public health. COVID Update (Argentina): Argentina detected the BA.3.2 subvariant (low risk), with cases recovering and one hospitalization tied to pre-existing conditions.
