AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoBCG Vaccine Safety: North Macedonia has paused use of a Bulgarian-made BCG vaccine as a precaution while reports of suspected reactions in Croatia are investigated. Health Minister Sasho Klekovski says the reported batches are expired and not in use locally; UNICEF is helping secure Japanese-made doses for a year to maintain children’s vaccinations. Bulgaria says the reports do not establish a vaccine quality problem, and two involved doses recorded at ten times the prescribed amount. Access to Treatment: North Macedonia has reportedly agreed to let Bulgarian specialists examine Iva Mihaylova, who needs care for spinal injuries from a 2025 crash. Her family says the treatment is unavailable locally and disputes the foreign minister’s assurance that she can receive adequate care in North Macedonia. The case is before the courts, and the government says it cannot interfere in judicial decisions.
