This month, we are overjoyed to present our new exhibit, “58 Years of Costa Rica, Through Our Eyes and Yours.” We are happier still collaborate with the Costa Rican-North American Cultural Center in Los Yoses, one of the most distinguished institutions in the country. The exhibition opens to the public Thursday, Dec. 4, and continues through the end of January.
To celebrate our first-ever open house, our staff has decorated the walls with archival photographs and favorite newspaper covers. Music will play in our vestibule. Staff members will be on-hand to greet you and talk about the paper.
Costa Rica's public healthcare system is evaluating medications such as Ozempic and Wegovy to treat diabetes and obesity. The CCSS has not announced when the drugs might become available or which patients would qualify.
More than 6,000 Europeans paid about 200 million Swiss francs for teak trees on 60 Costa Rica plantations. The seller is bankrupt and Swiss prosecutors are investigating.
