Covid-19 cases and deaths continue to increase in Fiji, while authorities have said they will send over 1000 positive people home to isolate because there are not enough facilities to keep all of them.

Meanwhile, the mortuary at Fiji's largest hospital is now full, as the deathtoll has increased to 33.

There has been criticism of the government for not enforcing lockdowns to deal with this surge in cases.
