Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern talks to Radio Tarana's Sanjesh Narain about the Covid-19 outbreak in Fiji.
The prospects of a recovery for Fiji's tourism industry are not looking good as the country grapples with a coronavirus surge, a Pacific tourism expert says.
Two people have died and the number of active cases has risen to 195 since the island nation’s second outbreak of Covid-19 started on April 18, this time involving the B.1.617.2 Indian variant. On Friday, Fiji recorded its highest number of cases in a day, with 46 infections, as health officials predict even more cases in the days to come.

There was joy, laughter and smiles all over at the famous Wailoaloa Beach in Nadi today as families took their time out and brought their loved ones to bid one final goodbye to 2020.
Some just lazed away at the beach as they enjoyed a mix of kava, while others took dips in the ocean as they cooled off during the bright sunny day.
Losavati Vakaruru, who was present at the beach with her family, said although it was tough year, she was just happy it was finally coming to a close.
