Some Qauia residents are raising serious concerns from within the Qauia Settlement lockdown area in Lami as they say only the lockdown borders are up but people are moving around in the area.
They are concerned and fearing for their safety as the people moving around could also be COVID-19 positive.
There are also live videos and some photos of people moving around in the lockdown area.
We have received calls and messages regarding Qauia Settlement in Lami that has had a rapid rise of COVID-19 cases.
Last week, we had highlighted that there are reports of some of the residents still moving around, not adhering to the COVID protocols and people from different houses getting together in the nights to have grog.
Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong had said the lockdown in Qauia Settlement has been extended until further notice as the Ministry needs more evidence of COVID safe behaviour from Qauia residents.
We have sent questions to the Acting Police Commissioner, Rusiate Tudravu and Permanent Secretary for Health, Doctor James Fong and are awaiting their response on the current situation in Qauia.
