Cayman is changing fast. New roads, homes and developments are transforming our Islands — but in the process, many of the native plants and wildlife that make Cayman special are disappearing from our landscapes.

Did you know that the entire chain from mangroves to seagrass beds to coral reefs works as one connected system? Or that some native plants, once thought lost forever, are now being reintroduced across Cayman?

🌿 Every native plant added back into our gardens, yards and communities helps strengthen those connections.

Click the link below and check out the blog on our LinkedIn page to learn why native plants matter, how they support Cayman's wildlife, and how you can help restore a piece of Cayman's natural heritage. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/cayman-islands-ministry-health-environment-and-sustainability_caymanislands-biodiversity-nativeplants-activity-7473020998888484864-kv7x?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAAL4NvoB-0dtfT5s_a9A8B4U0juxhYoHvUY

Travel smart. Stay healthy. Enjoy the World Cup safely!

Ministry of Health, Environment and Sustainability and the Public Health Department, continue to monitor and respond to ongoing pertussis activity (whooping cough) in the Cayman Islands.

The identification of new cases shows the disease is still spreading locally and continued preventive measures are needed to reduce the risk of further spread. Health authorities continue to monitor disease activity closely to support ongoing public health decision-making.

Members of the public are encouraged to remain alert for symptoms and to seek medical advice promptly when symptoms consistent with pertussis develop, especially if they have been in close contact with a confirmed case.

The public is also encouraged to take advantage of available vaccination opportunities where eligible.

Community outreach immunisation clinics will run from 20 June 2026.
