155 people are currently admitted in hospitals around the country with COVID-19 but none of them are in severe or critical condition.

This is a decrease compared to the 169 people that were admitted in the hospital on Monday.

The Health Ministry says 70 people are admitted in the Central Division, 59 in the Western Division and 26 in the Northern Division.

Permanent Secretary for Health Doctor James Fong says they continue to record lower than expected hospitalizations due to COVID-19 despite the current resurgence in COVID-19 cases throughout Fiji.

He says this is a result of the protection afforded by the vaccination program.
