The policy is science based. The vaccines are not 100% effective, and some visitors may have received vaccines known to be considerably less effective.

Ding Ding Ding...anybody that has problems with the strict Covid protocols Cayman Islands is doing to protect people/public health can feel free to travel somewhere else instead!

The poster was making a point that if the vaccines work, why would one have to quarantine for a few days

Because they do not work 100%. It is an extra layer of prevention.

Science based?

Can you please provide the science that says a vaccinated person is safe after 5 days but an unvaccinated person is not safe until 10 days have passed?

A good question about the duration. You would have to ask the Cayman health authorities.

Not only that, but some knuckleheads are forging vaccination cards. The 5 day quarantine helps prevent infection from people who forged cards but are actually infected.

Actually, this is a good question you should be asking them, because you are the one who posted that as a fact.

Another good question for you to think about, if you find it wasn't based on science what was it based on?

It's a fact that people fully vaccinated with an mRNA vaccine are infectious for a shorter period of time and have a lower viral load, meaning they are less likely to transmit the virus. You would have to ask the Cayman health authorities why they chose 5 days rather than 4 or 6. Perhaps they have had no breakthrough infections after people quarantined for that time.
