Chikungunya Vaccination Drive: French Guiana’s health authorities say chikungunya is accelerating and have launched a campaign using 2,500 free vaccine doses (Vimkunya and Ixchiq) for people over 65 and those with underlying conditions, as confirmed cases rise to 513 with 101 hospitalizations by May 28; Mosquito Control Push: alongside shots, ARS is stepping up efforts to destroy breeding sites, reduce stagnant water, and run awareness actions—especially in western French Guiana where most cases are concentrated; Regional Trade & Port Watch: France is urging Guyana to fast-track a deepwater port, arguing it will boost connectivity and trade with Europe—while local voices are warning Guyana to scrutinize who benefits most, given French Guiana’s proximity and potential spillover effects.
