Fiji's growing number of Covid-19 cases has prompted an aid response from St John New Zealand to help combat the pandemic.
"We're in the business of helping people in need, and our brothers and sisters in Fiji need our support right now, so it is our duty to help them however we can," says Dan Ohs, St John deputy chief executive, ambulance operations.
The package comprises four Toyota four-wheel-drives with stretchers to quickly locate, treat and transport patients across Fiji's mountainous terrain, PPE including 2000 gowns and masks, defibrillators, warm clothing and financial assistance to cover the cost of oxygen cylinders.
The move is in response to a request for aid from St John Fiji to its international ambulance counterparts.
