The Public Health Department announces the availability of this year’s flu vaccine. Dr Samuel Williams Rodriguez, Director of Primary Health Care, advises the public to take advantage of the free flu vaccination now being offered at various locations across the Cayman Islands.

All individuals aged 6 months and older are strongly encouraged to get vaccinated. Vaccination is critical to protecting yourself, your family, and the broader community, particularly those at higher risk of severe complications from the flu.
