Two new cases of COVID-19 have been recorded in Nadi.

There have been no cases in the Nadi area for 17 days and 20 days in Lautoka.

In an address to the nation this evening, Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama says the good news is that they have excellent knowledge of the movements of these two persons and they will be able to establish a small locked down area in Korociri Settlement near Nawaka village where these cases are residents and stop the virus there.

He adds for now the establishment of specific locked areas and teams made up of Ministry of Health and Medical Services, RFMF and Fiji Police sweeping across suburbs and localities in high risk zones screening and swabbing will be a major part of the targeted surgical approach.
