Travellers cleared of quarantine breach

(CNS): Travel Cayman officials have said that a group of people currently in isolation who were spotted on social media sitting aboard a boat this weekend were not in breach of the home quarantine protocols. The RCIPS, Public Health and Travel Cayman conducted an investigation into the alleged breach following a report about the circulation of the images. But it appeared that the pictures were taken while the travellers were sitting on the boat where it was dry-docked at the private residence where they were isolating. It was deemed that no breach occurred and there are no public health concerns.

“The public and travellers are reminded that a traveller is permitted to enter their private yard as long as this is not a shared space and has the adequate social distancing from neighbouring properties,” officials stated.

However, they noted that anyone found to be in breach of the mandatory quarantine provisions will be warned for intended prosecution and is liable on conviction to a fine of up to ten thousand dollars and imprisonment for up to two years.

    After reading this article and seeing the Photo of these two IDIOTS they damn well know what they were doing

    No doubt they were on a boat and the way the Photo were taking it gave me the impression as if they were partying over open water ( One place comes to mind ” the North Sound

    What this tills me there a DOUBLE STANDARD here – When I had a friend and his wife who were on Quarantine at my Detached Guess house –

    I Called Travel Time and asked if my friend could come out of the house and remain on the Patio which is Attached to the house and away from any one and their answer was ” NO ”

    So I would like to asked anyone one of you that is Glorifying these two IDIOT if there’s standards for Rich people and Poor People

    As usual – I’m not afraid to sign my Name like most of you

    I have no sympathy for these two. Doing what they did and posting it on social media they were looking for attention and attention is what they got..

    What if they were really on a boat in the North Sound? Should we just keep quiet and not raise the alarm?

    They could very easily put a caption on this what they were doing but they cropped the photos to make it look like they were on a boat in the water..

    It is people like this that think it is okay to flaunt the protocols or at least in this case make it appear as if they are for their own few minutes of fame..Hope they got it.

    Another example of travelers coming to Cayman, follow the rules of quarantine, then someone who has nothing better to do makes an anonymous call, and the CBC always reports “while conducting a routine inspection”, and BAM we have a breach. The travelers are charged, attacked and dragged thru the mud by social media and really poor reporting. In the end their cases get dismissed and no one knows of it or why. Why is it so easy to destroy someone’s reputation and so difficult to vindicate those who did nothing wrong. I’ve heard of a few cases where travelers have sued the DPP and were paid very well for their ordeal, yet their reputations are stained.

      I think the point here was they were posting on a boat with their wristbands on. Who the hell does that and doesn’t think that it will draw attention to them?

      No one to blame but they themselves..

      True story. We were paid $3k+ caymanian for our legal fees and trouble for our false prosecution. Was a neighbor who ratted without having the facts and CBP is so inept that once the public get word of a possible breech they lose all common sense and want to please the idiots screaming the loudest even tho they have no facts on their side. Everyone who is charged should absolutely file for cost reimbursement and drain DPP’s pockets and maybe just maybe they won’t continue to put people thru the threat of possible incarceration when the facts of innocence are clear from the beginning.

    Why doesn’t CMR try and confirm a story before posting.

    Who cares. Open the borders. They were probably vaccinated and posed no issues to the community.

      @7.28 I agree open those borders since “They were probably vaccinated and posed no issues to the community.”

    • DTown says:

      Fully vaccinated people can still spread this virus to other people you idiot. Is that not obvious now from the testing positive results . some people need to certainly act more responsibly and with common sense so as not continually spread this virus. who cares ?? Those who don’t want another lockdown because of jack@$$es just like you !

        Too many insults in one comment. Is it the best you can do to express your near-sighted opinion?

    I hope the authorities are ready for a lot of wasted resources and time investigating false leads. This is what happens when you have a society that rats out (and is encouraged to rat out) their fellow citizens without knowing any of the circumstances involved.

      They are ready to call out a couple of innocent visitors but would never rat out a fellow citizen for a real crime. This is a problem in Cayman.

      Society that rats out … but the police can never get any information when investigating shootings and assaults.
