AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Spiral Whitefly Response: The Department of Agriculture is tackling aggressive spiral whitefly infestations across Grand Cayman, urging residents to inspect leaf undersides, quarantine new plants, use yellow sticky traps, avoid nitrogen-heavy over-fertilising, and consider approved treatments like insecticidal soaps, neem oil, pyrethrin sprays, or systemic options where appropriate. SHIC Premium Review: Health officials are reviewing a proposed 25% increase to Standard Health Insurance Contract premiums, affecting over 12,000 residents, with the change set for 1 July 2026. Whooping Cough Update: Pertussis (whooping cough) cases are still being detected locally, especially among infants not fully protected, as authorities call for vaccination, early symptom recognition, and prompt medical advice. King Charles’ Birthday Waste Changes: George Town Landfill will close early at 1:00pm on 15 June, with no derelict vehicle or scrap metal dumping that day; regular collection and operations resume 16 June. Community Fitness Fundraiser: RUBiS Fuel to Finish 5K brought hundreds together for NCVO support, with top finishers Joshua Morgan and Amy Lunnon. Mosquito Control Efforts: The Mosquito Research and Control Unit continues operations after the first large emergence, noting weather delays for aerial treatments while ground and aerial larviciding reduce numbers. World Cup Health Guidance: The Ministry of Health and Public Health Department advise travellers to keep routine vaccinations up to date, with extra focus on measles protection, ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
