The Permanent Secretary for Health Dr James Fong says they have protocols in place to separate the positive and negative COVID-19 cases at the Lautoka Hospital.

Fijivillage had questioned Dr Fong if all measures are in place to ensure there is no breakout of cases within the Lautoka Hospital containment area.

The Permanent Secretary says they will also be testing everyone back and forth and people should be tested atleast five times while they are there.

Dr Fong says as they get more positive cases, they will be putting them in isolation.

He says they will continue with this until they get a true segregation between the positives and the negatives.
