The government of the Pacific island nation of Fiji this week imposed a three-day lockdown in response to a sudden outbreak of COVID-19 cases, linked to the B16-17 variant from India. The move was announced only 30 minutes before it was enforced.
While limited and inadequate, the measure was the strictest since COVID-19 hit the country in March last year.

Authorities banned inter-island travel and Fiji Airways suspended all international and domestic passenger flights.
