The Health Ministry is expected to confirm tomorrow the COVID-19 test results of the three people from Naicabecabe Village in Moturiki who travelled with Fiji’s latest COVID-19 patients.

A 53-year-old hotel worker and the daughter are the two latest positive cases in the country.

It has been confirmed that they travelled with three family members who were visiting from Naicabecabe Village in Moturiki last week.

The three people from Moturiki also stayed with the mother and daughter at their home in Nadi.

The three people are in home quarantine in Naicabecabe which is now on lockdown.

The Health Ministry’s Head of Health Protection Doctor Alisha Sahukhan says they are awaiting the samples of the three people in Moturiki.

She says the three will be tested and they should have the results by today.

If you have a fever, or any symptoms, like a dry cough or a loss of taste, visit one of these clinics immediately.

Please call 158 if you are feeling unwell.
