Measles outbreak raises health concerns
Belize has recorded 19 measles cases so far this year, per Jamaica Gleaner. Health officials are urging residents to ensure their vaccinations are up to date as the outbreak continues to spread.
The government is also dealing with social unrest, as Breaking Belize News reports that Chebat has insisted the government will not pay gang members to stop committing crimes following a controversial mediation meeting.
Meanwhile, authorities have detained five minors in connection with the murder of 17-year-old Kevin Meraz in Punta Gorda, according to Breaking Belize News. The case has drawn attention to youth violence in the region.
