Fiji records 83 Covid cases, its highest daily total yet

Fiji recorded 83 cases of Covid-19 on Sunday, its highest daily figure yet, as authorities moved to cordon off the country's largest hospital and quarantine an entire village as it battles to bring a rapidly growing outbreak under control.

11 of the cases were of unknown origin, said James Fong, the permanent secretary of health, and were being treated as cases of community transmission until proven otherwise.

They have a population just under 1,000,000, and a total of 4 Deaths, meaning 4 Deaths per Million.

Meanwhile, we have a 322,000,000 population and a total of 612,000 Deaths, or 1,840 Deaths per Million.

If Fiji had our population, they would have roughly 1,300 Deaths.
