New childhood and maternal immunisation schedule launched
The Cayman Islands has introduced a new national immunisation framework extending protection from pregnancy through adolescence, a move officials say strengthens prevention by adopting a more integrated, life-course approach and aligning with evolving global standards.

Eden Hospital on 27 April, aligning with Cayman’s participation in Vaccination Week in the Americas, under the theme ‘Your decision makes a difference: Immunisation for all‘.
