Minister for Health Dr, Ifereimi Waqainabete

Minister for Health Dr, Ifereimi Waqainabete confirms that once a person tests negative for COVID-19 after 14 days of quarantine at the government facility, he or she will not be required for any further quarantine.

He made this comment after some people contacted Fijivillage and advised us that the soldiers of the Republic of Fiji Military Forces who returned from Egypt last month and got cleared from government quarantine facility over the weekend have been spotted at various places including banks.

Dr. Waqainabete says there should not be any concern regarding this as anyone returning from overseas is tested for COVID-19 upon their return and after they finish their 14 days quarantine at the government facility.
