The Permanent Secretary for Health Doctor James Fong is stressing that people who ignored their restrictions and managed to move from containment areas on Viti Levu into non-containment areas should call 158 and self-isolate now.

He says they are locating these people, but not quickly enough.

Doctor Fong stresses that whoever they are, wherever they are, they must self-isolate, and they must do it now.

If you are one of these people, or you know one of these people, call 158.

Doctor Fong says they are not looking to dole out punishment and they are not going to move you back where you came from.

He says they are going to ask that you self-isolate at home for the next 14 days.
