Safer Births: A remote emergency in Khuvsgul shows the risks facing pregnant women far from hospitals: a premature, breech birth required a three-hour ambulance relay over rough roads, with doctors warning a short delay could have been fatal. Cancer Prevention: IARC, UNICEF Mongolia and the National University of Medical Sciences are exploring research on H. pylori infection and gastric cancer risks. Mongolia has among the world’s highest gastric cancer rates; the proposed study would assess infection across ages 1–69 and inform prevention. Clean Air, Healthier Homes: Government ministries and WHO have launched a call for action on clean household energy, alongside a 2027–2040 roadmap to phase out household coal use. Air pollution was associated with an estimated 2,895 deaths in Mongolia in 2021. Blood Supply: Mongolia’s transfusion service says it needs 250–300 blood units a day to supply hospitals, up from about 150 previously, as donor participation grows. Health Partnerships: Mongolia and South Korea agreed to advance cooperation across healthcare, including seeking concessional financing for the Second National Cancer Centre, which Mongolia plans to name after Korean doctor Lee Tae-joon.
