Chlordecone Accountability: French MPs have unanimously backed a bill acknowledging the State’s “share of responsibility” for the health, moral, environmental and economic harm linked to chlordecone in Guadeloupe and Martinique, where more than 90% of adults are contaminated; the pesticide has been linked to prostate cancer and other serious health effects, and the law sets goals for decontamination and compensation planning. Regional Health & Environment: An OECS-supported delegation is visiting Martinique and Guadeloupe (June 1–4) to study sargassum management, focusing on monitoring, collection, risk control and turning seaweed into value-added products to reduce public health and economic impacts. Imported Mosquito-Borne Risk: French health authorities report 92 imported mosquito-borne cases (dengue, chikungunya, Zika) in mainland France from May 1–25, all tied to travel abroad, as the tiger mosquito is active and established across many departments. Travel Care Reminder: UK travel insurers warn that people without a GHIC (replacing the EHIC after Brexit) may face higher out-of-pocket medical costs in Europe; the card is free to apply for in advance and does not replace travel insurance.
