Keeping up with health and wellness news from Guam

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 10 hours ago

Enforcement Gap: Guam lawmakers can pass laws fast, but a new spotlight shows the system still isn’t enforcing them—after a year-old ban on reef-harming sunscreen chemicals, banned products are still reportedly being imported and sold, with no fines or shelf pullbacks. Public Health Response: DPHSS is stepping up with two free pertussis vaccine clinics (May 22 in Talo’fo’fo and May 29 in Dededo), and it says nearly half of SNAP “food loss” affidavits tied to Typhoon Sinlaku have been approved. Health & Safety Crisis: An 18-year-old is accused of criminal sexual conduct after a 13-year-old victim gave birth, and the case is now in court. Justice Watch: Michael Marasigan, still a fugitive, was sentenced to nearly 22 years for his leadership role in a $34M Hafa Adai bingo fraud scheme. Care Access: DPHSS budget talks warn that looming federal SNAP work changes could remove nearly 7,000 people from benefits.
