COVID keeps premier from parliament meeting
(CNS): Premier Juliana O’Connor-Connolly was not in parliament on Monday and will be absent for the rest of this week’s Fourth Meeting of the 2023/2024 session because she has COVID-19, officials have said. In her absence, Deputy Premier Andre Ebanks will act in her stead, and Tourism Minister Kenneth Bryan will act as the deputy premier. Although Bryan was absent when the parliament began on Monday morning, he is expected to attend during the rest of the week.
However, there has been no indication as to why the premier could not attend virtually.
In addition to the bills on the government’s agenda and the presentation of numerous reports, a number of private members’ motions will be introduced and the opposition has submitted more than a dozen parliamentary questions.

Don’t worry Kenneth Bernie and Jay will save us.
These clowns gives us the best chance to succeed.
God Bless our Hon. Premier. May God heal her quickly!
She don’t contribute much anyway.
Flying around saving the eastern Caribbean from externally caused disasters while we here on Rock Cayman is being destroyed from within.. a real Poppashow! Hope she will fill us in on how many thousands she personally contributed. Having said that I am grateful that all the Grenadians who were planning to fly in with her for jobs were disuaseded.
Absent and still absent, jet hopping and not even able to attend to duties – they on mimimum wage?
Covid is increasing again. Lots of cases in USA and UK, and there is a new variant called LB.1 spreading in Australia (their winter).
While Covid seems much less deadly than it once was, it is not pleasant for many who get it, and vulnerable people are still at risk. And the long Covid effects are still an issue for some.
So why she jetting around all over the place….
She wore a mask here when no one else had one on, but then jetted around by choice, mixing with so many people impacted by Beryl without a care in the world. Karma
Wasn’t she vaccinated?
Doesn’t she consistently wear a mask?
Government fashion accessories, mask, walker, walking stick when in Cayman.
covid….a dream come true for every caymanian worker and civil servant
Despite you being an absolute POS, I still hope you and your loved ones continue to be lucky enough to remain unaffected by a virus that has taken the lives of tens of millions worldwide.
The world’s Governments and medical leaders have taken lives of people. Get your shit together!
Deaths are 7,053,524 from 2019. Quite a significant health event, but not tens of millions. Few deaths these days. Long Covid afflicts 1 in 10, so that’s more the public health risk now.
