The two main issues arising from the COVID-19 containment is people’s ability to provide food for their families and fear of what could happen next.
This was the word from Save the Children Fiji CEO Shairana Ali.
“There is a lot of anxiety regarding the lockdown as people are worried about how they will provide for their children and families if the lockdown does not end soon,” she said.
“Many families are stretching whatever savings they have to be able to meet basic needs. The main issue of concern is people’s ability to provide food for their families.”
