482,175 adults in Fiji have received their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine and 140,184 people have received their second dose.

Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong says this means that 82.2 percentage of the target population have received at least one dose and 23.9 percent are now fully vaccinated.

Meanwhile the 7-day average of new cases per day is a worrying 1038 cases per day or 1173 cases per million population per day.

Doctor Fong says the daily case numbers remain high, and daily test positivity remains high, indicating ongoing widespread community transmission in the Suva-Nausori containment zone.

The cases are also increasing in the West with evidence of community transmission in that division.

The Northern and Eastern Divisions currently have no active cases.
