In Bougainville, public awareness efforts have ramped up after confirmation of the region's first case of Covid-19.
On Friday, it was announced that a 22-year-old student tested positive after returning to Buka from Port Moresby.
It's bad timing for Bougainville as it heads to the polls this week for its five-yearly regional elections.
