World Health Leadership: Dominican Health Minister Víctor Atallah is set to preside over the 79th World Health Assembly in Geneva for the first time in the country’s history, with obesity prevention and health-system priorities on the agenda. Hospital Management: In Greater Santo Domingo, the National Health Service says more than five hospital directors have been removed since January, as SNS leadership carried out “surprise visits” and reshuffles. Public Health & Safety: A “Survivor Greece” contestant, Stavros Floros, was seriously injured near Saona Island while spearfishing; production was suspended and authorities opened criminal proceedings against the boat captain. Health System Focus: The SNS also moved to eliminate private contracts in public hospitals, aiming to improve transparency and efficiency. Health Policy Context: Rare earth exploration is advancing in the background, with officials saying results could be available by year-end—an economic shift that could later affect health and environmental planning.
