Detailed explanation-1: -COVID-19 is having a substantial impact on the Fijian economy. Fiji’s high reliance on international tourism [making up 38.9 per cent of gross domestic product in 2019, or AUD3. 2 billion, and 35.5 per cent of total employment] means it is exposed to COVID-19 border closures and travel restrictions.
Detailed explanation-2: -“Since the first case of Covid-19 in the country, schools have been closed. The term-end breaks were shifted up a week and once that was over new ways had to be devised to continue some form of teaching so that students keep learning while being on a very long ‘break’.”
Detailed explanation-3: -COVID-19, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), was declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO) on the 11th of March 2020, leading to some form of lockdown across almost all countries of the world.
