The Health Ministry has completed its review of the adult target population for vaccination and the revised coverage rates are 95.2% for one dose and 64.4% for the two-dose coverage.

Permanent Secretary for Health Dr James Fong says to date, a total of 588,599 adults in Fiji have received their first dose of the vaccine and 398,077 have received their second doses.

He says the mop-up vaccination program will continue and this may result in further adjustments to the target population.

Dr Fong adds for persons who are currently ill or have valid reasons for delaying their vaccination, they request you to apply for possible temporary exemptions through covidexemptionreq@gmail.com.
