The RCIPS, in conjunction with Public Health and Travel Cayman, conducted an investigation into an alleged breach of isolation protocols following the circulation of images on social media showing travellers in quarantine aboard a boat.
The investigation revealed that the pictures were taken on a boat that was dry-docked at the private residence where the travellers were in quarantine. It was deemed that no breach occurred and there are no Public Health concerns at the moment.
The public and travellers are reminded that a traveller is permitted to enter their private yard as long as this is not a shared space and has the adequate social distancing from neighbouring properties. Anyone seeking clarification can reach out to the Travel Cayman team by email travel.support@gov.ky or by calling 345-945-0556.
The public is also reminded that any person that is found to be in breach of the mandatory quarantine provisions will be warned for intended prosecution and is liable on conviction to a fine of up to ten thousand dollars and imprisonment for up to two years.
