The Fiji Police Force is calling on Fijians not to be complacent with the COVID protocols and continue to follow measures in place.

This comes as 119 Public Health Infringement Notices were issued from October 3rd to the 5th.

Commissioner of Police, Brigadier-General Sitiveni Qiliho says that failure to wear a mask in public remains a concern as 99 cases were reported in the three days.
