lockdown after welcoming it's first international flight in months which brought Covid to the beach paradise.The remote island managed to stay Covid free until Saturday after two-thirds of flight passengers tested positive for the virus and four cases were found in the community.This is the first lockdown the paradise island have experienced due to remaining Covid free for most of the pandemic.The lockdown has been put in place after a Fiji Airways flight from Fiji to Kiribati's capital of South Tarawa was the first to land in 10 months after the government reopened its borders.Out of 54 people trying to enjoy a getaway, 36 of them have tested positive for Covid-19.Everyone on the flight had been vaccinated prior to landing in Kiribati.The government have quickly reacted and put together a quarantine facility for all of the holidaymakers.Officials confirmed that a guard at the facility tested positive on Tuesday and two people who were in close contact in nearby Bouta village are self-isolating while another two cases were detected in the community.Due to this the government issued an island-wide lockdown from Saturday.Locals of the island will now face a curfew and won't be allowed to leave their homes unless it is for essential work or to gain emergency services help.Schools will also be closed down for the time being.

London Ont. small businesses closing, say COVID restrictions make it impossible to stay open
COVID pandemic restrictions and supply chain issues creating the perfect storm for many just struggling to get by.Since the start of the month, Ontario has been under tightened public health measures to try and halt the spread of the Omicron variant, with retail shops restricted to 50 per cent capacity and indoor dining closed at restaurants.Arepa Ink, London’s first Venezuelan restaurant, was started up a year ago by friends Maria Avilan and Carla Calderon.The two said their hope was to bring their love for their culture’s food – namely the Arepa, made from corn-based dough – to the people of London Ont.“Our vision when we started was to make the Arepa a stable like shawarma or taco, and in Venezuela, we eat it for almost every occasion,” Avilan said.But starting a new business during the pandemic presented its own challenges: from multiple lockdowns impacting customer flow to constant increases in the price of food due to supply chain issues.“When the government started saying they were going to do something we saw ourselves affected right away, and people reacted right away. It was a rollercoaster for us because every week we had to plan what to buy,” Avilan said.Calderon noted when they started out, a box of containers for packaging their food cost $50 but in a span of months, the price had jumped to $130.
