 Guinea-Bissau stops vaccine study funded by Trump administration Guinea-Bissau's foreign minister has said his government has stopped a study funded by the Trump administration aiming to evaluate side effects of the life-saving hepatitis B vaccine, including any links to autism. The West African country, one of the region's poorest, has high rates of hepatitis B, and the prospective study had drawn an outcry from scientists and international health bodies because only half the newborns in the trial would get the vaccine at birth. World Health Organization Director-General Tedros Ghebreyesus said it was not ethical. Guinea-Bissau last month suspended the trial pending an ethical review.

GOVT TO SANCTION UNCCREDITED/UNAPPROVED SCHOOLS IN ANAMBRA STATE. (PHOTOS). #PRESS RELEASE.


 *Government To Sanction Unaccredited/Unapproved Schools In Anambra*


The Government of Anambra State is concerned  that about 2000 unaccredited/unapproved schools are operating across the 21 Local Government Areas in Anambra State .


This is unacceptable, given the priority that Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo CFR, a first class academic himself, has accorded quality education. 


Settiing up and running a school without requisite accreditation and approval is an indication that the school is not operating in accordance with the standards set by the Government through the Ministry of Education.


Government is of the view that our children, irrespective of their location in Anambra State, deserve the best learning environment, teachers and curriculum. 


In the light of this, Government has directed that all the affected schools whose names are listed hereunder should obtain the requirements for proper accreditation and registration from Anambra State Ministry of Education, and take immediate steps to comply before the the resumption of schools.


Failure to do this will attract dire sanctions.


The list of approved schools will be made available to the Education Departments of the Local Governments through the Transition Committee Chairmen for easy access.
