The Chief Medical Officer, Dr John Lee, reports 205 COVID-19 tests have been carried out since this was last reported on Thursday, 24 September. All were negative.

The number of antibody tests that have been conducted at the Health Services Authority and Health City Cayman Islands now stands at 2,557.  Of these, there have been a total of 63 positives (2.5% positive), where 38 are people previously positive on a PCR test and six were contacts of previous PCR positive people; this leaves 19, eight of whom have a travel history abroad during the recent months and 11 who have no identified COVID-19 contact history.

The CMO will not be reporting antibody test results going forward although the results will continue to be collected.

The total number of people in isolation, either at a government facility or in their homes as required by the Medical Officer of Health, is 349.  

Please note that yesterday’s figure for the number of people in isolation was a partial total (as clarified yesterday); today’s figure represents the full total.
