Immunisation against typhoid is advised.
Other risks: Outbreaks of dengue fever and dengue haemorrhagic fever can occur. Hepatitis A has been reported in the northern Caribbean. Immunisations against TB, diphtheria and hepatitis B and C are sometimes advised.
Health care: Modern medical facilities are available, particularly on Grand Cayman and Cayman Brac, including government-operated hospitals on both islands. There is also an island-wide, 24-hour 911 (or 555) emergency service. Serious cases may be transferred to Miami. Health costs are similar to the UK. Private insurance is recommended. Insect repellent is useful to counter mosquitoes and sandflies.
