AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Public Health & Safety: A measles outbreak that started in Texas has now crossed into Mexico, where officials report deaths and thousands of cases since 2025—another reminder that two-dose vaccination coverage is the real line of defense. Healthcare Access: In Puerto Rico, a new scholarship push from MMM Multihealth will award seven health-care education scholarships of up to $8,000, aiming to grow the next generation of clinicians. Clinical Practice: At Retina World Congress 2026, University of Puerto Rico ophthalmology faculty discussed how supraorbital vibration may reduce pain during intravitreal injections—an easy, non-invasive add-on to topical anesthesia. Disaster Recovery: FEMA approved nearly $40 million for Puerto Rico recovery, including COVID-19 reimbursement and work tied to past disasters. Local Logistics: In the USVI, a San Juan docking restriction tied to a cargo vessel is raising cargo disruption concerns for residents and businesses. Sports & Health: Elsewhere, MLB’s José Berríos is facing an elbow surgery timeline that could stretch well beyond a few months.
