AGP Executive Report

Last update: 35 minutes ago

Measles crisis: DGHS says seven more children died from measles-like symptoms in the past 24 hours, pushing suspected measles deaths to 584 and total confirmed deaths to 93; 807 new suspected cases and 80 lab-confirmed cases were reported, with 91,789 suspected cases nationwide since March 15. Universal healthcare push: A record health budget and reforms aim to expand affordable care through bigger funding, digital health cards, more health workers, and new specialized children’s hospitals. Workplace water safety: More garment workers in Gazipur fell ill after drinking factory-supplied water—13 hospitalised after a similar incident that sent 65 workers for treatment—raising concerns about contamination and water system checks. Public health warning on antibiotics: Doctors report antibiotic resistance is worsening outcomes for critically ill children during the measles outbreak, driving up costs and contributing to deaths. Animal welfare & wildlife: Activists urged protection of Dhaka’s stray dogs under the Animal Welfare Act, while Assam police (with a Bangladeshi suspect among those held) rescued golden langurs from an alleged cross-border trafficking ring. Policy and governance: Bangladesh Bank dissolved Islami Bank’s board amid controversy and appointed an executive director to run operations; a draft Family Card policy proposes a scoring system to reduce fraud and duplication.
