AGP Executive Report
Last update: 4 hours agoWeather & Risk: Indomet says a tropical wave south of the country will bring rain, thunderstorms, and gusty winds, with Greater Santo Domingo and nearby provinces under alerts for possible urban flooding; winds could reach 25–45 km/h and higher in spots, so authorities warn of falling branches and unsafe conditions for small vessels. Public Health Watch: SINAVE’s 2025 vs 2026 comparison shows progress on malaria and mortality, but a sharp rise in leptospirosis (253 cases vs 85) plus increases in dengue and severe respiratory infections—signals to keep sanitation and mosquito control tight. Climate & Heat: Saharan dust is expected to cut rainfall and keep temperatures high Friday and Saturday, with guidance to hydrate, avoid peak sun, and expect only isolated showers until a tropical wave boosts instability on Sunday. Environment & Nature: A coral-reef study highlights how herbivorous fish help prevent algal overgrowth, while climate change and overfishing can push reefs into degraded “state shifts” that suffocate coral recovery. Policy & Governance: Congress is entering a new 2026 session with key long-stalled bills still pending, including a Climate Change Law—raising the stakes for faster environmental action.
