AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Measles Emergency: Bangladesh’s measles outbreak hit another grim peak, with 17 children dying in 24 hours (till 8:00am Monday), pushing the national death toll to 545 since March 15. DGHS data says 1,127 suspected cases were recorded in the same period, with 97 new confirmed infections; 64,940 suspected and 8,719 confirmed cases now total. Vaccination Push: Health minister Sardar Md Sakhawat Husain says over 2 crore children have already been vaccinated, and the campaign is still running under routine immunisation and special outreach. Eid Pressure on Health & Roads: As Eid-ul-Azha nears, reports also highlight worsening travel strain—rain and factory closures are choking Dhaka highways, while deadly road crashes continue to add to the risk for families heading home.
