The Chief Medical Officer, Dr. John Lee, reports that 566 COVID-19 tests have been carried out since this was last reported on Friday, 18 June, 2021. There was one positive result in a traveller.

A traveller toward the end of the 14-day quarantine has been admitted to the Critical Care Unit at the Cayman Islands Hospital suffering from symptoms attributed to COVID-19 disease; this person is in stable condition.

To date, 88,911 COVID-19 vaccinations have been given in total in the Cayman Islands. Of these, 47,061 (66% of 71,100) had at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and approximately 59% have completed the two-dose course.

The vaccine supply for clinics on Grand Cayman has been replenished. Vaccine clinics have resumed and are now offering both first and second doses.

The public is reminded of COVID-19 vaccination clinic protocols:

• Bring a form of ID which shows your date of birth (you no longer need to prove that you are legally and/or ordinarily resident in the Cayman Islands).
• Do not laminate your vaccination card (even after your second dose). If you have already done so, please take your vaccination card to the ORIA Vaccination Clinic along with your photo ID.
• Park in the long-term parking lot.
• Do not bring children, when possible.
• No pets allowed at the vaccination clinic.
• Bring a completed consent form for Dose 1.
• Facemasks required.
• You need to bring your vaccination card to receive your second dose.
