AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

SHIC Premium Review: Cayman’s Ministry of Health and MHES/DHRS are reviewing a proposed ~25% SHIC premium increase from 1 July 2026, affecting over 12,000 residents enrolled under CG Britcay, with officials citing cost pressures and advanced services while acknowledging cost-of-living concerns. Pertussis Update: Health officials say whooping cough is still spreading locally, with new cases across ages and settings—especially among infants not fully protected—prompting renewed calls for vaccination, early symptom recognition, and prompt medical advice. World Cup Health Guidance: Ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, MHES and the Public Health Department urge travellers to check routine vaccinations (with measles protection highlighted) and take sensible precautions to reduce infectious disease spread. Ebola Precautions (Regional): Enhanced screening is in place for travellers arriving in Trinidad and Tobago after visits/transits to Ebola-affected areas in Central/East Africa, with no Caribbean cases reported to date. Mosquito Control: The Mosquito Research and Control Unit continues intensive operations after the first large emergence, but notes weather has limited some aerial treatments while teams remain on standby. Landfill Notice: George Town Landfill will close early at 1:00pm on King Charles III’s Birthday (15 June); regular garbage and recycling continue, with operations resuming 16 June. Wellness & Community: Health City Cayman Islands launched a new online CME series for Caribbean doctors on dementia and atrial fibrillation, while a local 5K fundraiser (RUBiS Fuel to Finish) backed NCVO and promoted active living.
