AGP Executive Report

Last update: 4 hours ago

Medicine Safety: Namibia Medicines Regulatory Council quarantined two batches of Azithromycin Oral Suspension after reports the antibiotic failed to dissolve properly, while Cospharm also issued a voluntary recall for VCS Flumed Syrup after crystals were found—raising fresh questions about medicine quality and regulator communication. Primary Healthcare Access: The N$21.7m Onamafila Primary Health Care Clinic opened in Ohangwena, bringing services closer to residents of 24 villages and supporting Universal Health Coverage goals. Rural Health Staffing: Health and Social Services Minister Dr Esperance Luvindao warned that rural posts stay hard to fill when professionals are unwilling to work outside towns, urging UNAM training to prepare graduates for remote communities. Health Supply Chain: A N$178m Central Medical Store contract was signed to expand storage capacity and improve compliance with good storage practices, aiming to strengthen medicine availability nationwide. Flood Resilience for Learning & Health: CPBN signed a N$268.7m contract to elevate Muzii Combined School grounds in Zambezi to reduce flood disruption and health risks. Digital Skills for Health & Beyond: UNAM and Huawei signed an MoU to set up an AI laboratory, with practical research and training that could support areas including health. Namibia–India Cooperation: Namibia and India agreed to deepen trade and investment, including pharmaceuticals and medical devices, alongside critical minerals and digitalisation.
