Fiji’s Health Secretary Dr James Fong said four cases were from the existing containment zones of Tramline and Qima Settlement in Nadi.
He said one was a corrections officer from Suva undergoing quarantine at the Tavua Prison compound as part of the essential movement from the red zone to the green zone when they tested positive.
This is similar to the prison officers who had tested positive on Monday in Rakiraki.
The second case in Tavua lives at the Public Works Department quarters and his source of transmission is under investigation.
Four new Lovu cases
“There are four new cases from Lovu, Lautoka, with unknown sources of transmission. Seven contacts of these Lovu cases have also tested positive.
