A total of 32 fever clinics have been setup and are fully operational around the country as Fiji ramps up its rapid response to COVID-19.

These clinics are operational from 8am to 4pm everyday and are based at strategic locations that can be conveniently accessed by the members of the public.

The Ministry of Health and Medical Services is encouraging people to visit these clinics should they have a fever or develop any symptoms of COVID-19, in an effort to stop the spread of this virus.

The Ministry also says that people will not need to make any appointments with the doctors and nurses in these clinics.

They say the establishment of fever clinics is an integral part of the government’s effort to contain the spread of the virus and to ensure that the vulnerable members of the public are not exposed to the virus in regular hospitals and health centres.

Most of the Clinics are open from 8am-4pm, 7 days a week, with the exception of the Punjas and Kamikamica Health Centres in Lautoka which are open from 8am-10am and the Valelevu Health Centre in Nasinu which will be open 24 hours.
