AGP Executive Report
Last update: 24 minutes agoDengue Alert Across the Pacific: As of 11 June 2026, six Pacific Island countries and territories—including Tuvalu—are reporting increased dengue activity, with New Caledonia the most affected. From 1 January to 11 June, the region has logged 3,500+ confirmed cases, 156 hospitalisations, and 3 deaths, with most cases concentrated in a few locations. Dengue spreads via day-biting mosquitoes, and people with a prior infection face higher risk of severe disease—so extra prevention steps and readiness for hospital pressure are key. Vaccine Support for Outbreak Response: In related health coverage, Australia’s COVID-19 vaccine donations to Pacific nations topped 1 million doses, including 7,000 to Tuvalu, delivered to help countries respond faster while COVAX covers only part of needed supplies.
