Health Regulation: Parliament’s Social Cluster Committee has ordered the Lesotho Medical, Dental and Pharmacy Council to reinstate registration for integrative medical practitioners immediately, after dozens were left unable to renew licences; the council has until Friday to restore the 2024 status and coordinate with the Ministry of Health. Public Health & Safety: A Lesotho child remains in ICU in South Africa after a reported dog attack in Lesotho; the family says specialist treatment not available locally forced transfer and costly care, prompting fundraising. Mental Health & Suicide: A South Africa campaign highlights that men account for nearly 80% of recorded suicides, calling for safer spaces and community support to reduce stigma and prevent deaths. Community Crime Prevention: In Maseru, MP Mampho Tjabane backed youth and children-focused winter sports and life-skills initiatives to reduce involvement in crime, with police urging reporting of drugs and substance abuse. Nutrition Support: Quthing nutrition clubs received refresher training to strengthen child-under-five nutrition messaging at village level, focusing on the first 1,000 days, breastfeeding, and hygiene. Food & Disease (Regional): SADC countries are pushing a unified cross-border plan to eradicate foot-and-mouth disease, including coordinated vaccinations and diagnostics—relevant for livestock health and trade.
