AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Blood Supply Push: The University of Nebraska System is urging Nebraskans to donate as the American Red Cross calls a national blood crisis and Nebraska Community Blood Bank hits its lowest supply since COVID, launching the “We Give Blood” challenge with a goal of 20,000 donations by Dec. 4. Cancer Breakthrough: The FDA approved Rasonque (daraxonrasib), the first pill shown to nearly double survival for advanced pancreatic cancer, offering a new option for patients after prior treatment. Food Safety Alert: The FDA upgraded a recall of Bettergoods pistachio nut butter to Class I, warning it “could cause serious illness or death” from possible salmonella contamination. Public Health in Nebraska: Central District Health reported the first human West Nile Virus case in its Hall/Hamilton/Merrick area, while DHHS issued a harmful algal bloom health alert for Rockford Lake, urging residents to avoid water contact. Maternal/Infant Safety: Omaha police and fire crews responded after a newborn with the umbilical cord still attached was left at a South Omaha fire station; Nebraska’s safe haven law allows surrender for babies up to 90 days old. Community Care Planning: A webinar from SDSU Extension will help Nebraskans and regional partners prepare for caregiving and end-of-life decisions through the “Organize This!” program.
