Fiji is plunged into lockdown after the island paradise recorded its first coronavirus case in a YEAR 

The largest cities in Fiji have been ordered into a snap lockdown after the Pacific nation records its first locally-acquired Covid-19 case in more than a year.

A 53-year-old woman tested positive to the virus, making her the first person to have caught it in Fiji since April last year.

All Fijians have been ordered to stay at home, with public gatherings banned and people only allowed out for essential medical reasons. 

The island nation has had less than 100 cases since the pandemic began, and just two deaths.
