SUVA: Fiji ordered two of its largest cities into lockdown on Monday after the Pacific island nation recorded its first case of COVID-19 community transmission in 12 months.

Fiji has largely contained the virus through strict isolation measures and border controls, recording less than 100 cases and just two deaths in a population of 930,000. "All Fijians should stay home. Public gatherings should not happen. No services should run except for essential medical services," the health department said.
