Fiji’s Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Tourism Viliame Gavoka has reassured visitors of the country’s safety following a suspected case of alcohol poisoning that hospitalised seven tourists, including four Australians, at the Warwick Fiji Resort.
“This is the only significant case of its kind in memory, and nothing like this has ever been experienced. We are committed to fully understanding the cause and preventing further occurrences,” Gavoka said on Dec. 16, confirming that the affected individuals were stable.
