On January 20, a spokesman for the New Zealand Foreign Ministry said that in order to prevent the spread of the new crown virus, the Tongan government plans to receive relief supplies from New Zealand through a "no contact" approach.
On the same day, a transport aircraft of the New Zealand Air Force has taken off to provide Tonga with the first batch of post-disaster relief supplies. A Spokesman for the New Zealand Foreign Office said the Tongan government agreed to the New Zealand Ministry of Defence's proposal to provide assistance in a "no-contact" manner to prevent the introduction of the new coronavirus into Tonga by New Zealand military personnel.
Since the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Tonga has taken strict anti-epidemic measures to prevent the introduction of the new crown virus into the country. So far, only one imported case of COVID-19 has been detected in Tonga in October 2021. As required by the Tongan government, all travelers entering Tonga are subject to a three-week quarantine at designated facilities. (Reporter Sun Muning)
