Fiji's government response to Covid-19 not up to scratch

From First Up, 5:44 am on 23 June 2021

Fiji has had another day of record Covid-19 cases as overseas medical teams including New Zealanders arrive in the country to help deal with the escalating crisis. There were 180 new cases yesterday and two deaths, which pushed the total number of cases above 15-hundred and the death toll to seven. New Zealander Todd Scott, who co-owns the National Business Review, has been living in Fiji since April and told our producer Matthew Theunissen that areas of the government's response haven't been up to scratch.
