Man of the moment
Every evening I stay glued to my TV screen to listen to Dr James Fong, the man of the moment. He brings hope and cheer on our faces. His dissemination of the latest information on the killer COVID-19 virus is chilling indeed. It is frightening that the matter can get out of control. It has already spread in Viti Levu. Some people in the Fijian community do not seem to grasp the gravity of the situation. They continue to violate the protocols laid down by Dr Fong and his team. Some go out on picnics and loiter around without masks. Those who show this lackadaisical attitude must be severely dealt with. I wish to assure Dr Fong that the nation deeply appreciates your team’s effort. We all want to live a COVID-19 free healthy life.
