A new positive case has been confirmed in Labasa, bringing to 16 the number of people in Fiji that have COVID19.
Confirmed positive for COVID19 today is the granddaughter of the 54-year-old man from Soasoa, Labasa who is also Fiji’s case 9 and head of the country’s cluster three.
The 9-year-old positive diagnosis brings to 16 Fiji’s total confirmed case.
“But given the length of time this young girl spent in isolation, and the fact that she wasn’t showing symptoms, her risk of infecting others is extremely low,” Fiji Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama said.
