A posted shared by Calypso Diving Centre and re-shared by Wildlife Rescue Team Malta raised awareness about an injured turtle which has seemingly ingesting fishing line.

‘It has fishing line coming out of the cloaca, and it is VERY IMPORTANT…..DO NOT PULL THE LINE’, wrote Wildlife Rescue Team Malta.

‘If there’s a hook at the end of the line and you pull, you would be actively shredding inside’, the page continued.

650 Parents Could Benefit From €6 Million IVF Investment

650 Parents Could Benefit From €6 Million IVF Investment
May 22 2024 Share

The government is set to invest €6 million in IVF procedures, Health and Active Ageing Minister Jo Etienne Abela revealed.

This follows the recent extension of the IVF medication reimbursement scheme for prospective parents undergoing medically assisted procreation at licensed private clinics in Malta.

“The government recognizes that each day of waiting could mean a lost opportunity for those seeking to become parents. Therefore, we are committed to providing uninterrupted IVF services to ensure maximum efficiency in managing waiting lists.”

The minister explained that, after discussions with the Embryo Protection Authority (EPA), the government will begin negotiations with Malta’s only licensed “Tissue Establishment” that offers comprehensive private IVF services.

He further detailed that within six months, services will be available to approximately 650 prospective parents, with all costs covered by the government.

This includes 300 individuals undergoing IVF, around 200 with cryopreserved embryos at Mater Dei awaiting embryo transfer, about 100 awaiting IVF with donor oocytes or sperm, and around 50 needing IUI services or PGTM services as required.

“This initiative is designed to reduce waiting times and ensure that prospective parents receive the necessary services promptly, with all expenses covered by the government,” the minister concluded.
