Covid-19: Curfew in Kiribati after first commercial flight in almost two years brings in 40 cases - report
The first commercial flight into Kiribati in almost two years has reportedly brought 40 Covid-19 cases into the Pacific island nation, which had been virtually untouched by the virus.
A curfew order was put in place for the country of 119,000 people from 10pm Tuesday local time, according to Radio Kiribati, the state-run broadcaster.
That comes after 40 passengers reportedly tested positive for Covid-19 from the first flight into the country since it opened its international borders on 10 January. The border had been shut since late March 2020.
Kiribati had previously recorded only two Covid-19 cases from a returning ship in May 2021, both of whom recovered while the ship was quarantined.
Clearly a pandemic of the vaccinated!!!
