Retired Pediatrician, Doctor Lisi Tikoduadua

Retired Pediatrician, Doctor Lisi Tikoduadua says the only thing that can help our country at the moment is for people to get vaccinated and take away the different things they may believe.

Doctor Tikoduadua who spent more than 40 years in the medical field is pleading with the people of Fiji to reconsider what they can do and pray in good faith.

She also thanked all the health personnel for their commitment and service to the people during this pandemic.

Doctor Tikoduadua says these health workers are already dealing with different sicknesses in different health facilities and now they have COVID-19 to deal with.

She says no one else knows the struggles that they are going through apart from the health workers themselves.

Doctor Tikoduadua says they have left their families to work in other places and stay in quarantine and even in isolation.

She says she thanks God for protecting the army of the Ministry of Health.
