The government of Kiribati is seeking new covid-19 free transit countries to help repatriate its citizens.
Starting in October last year 1400 iKiribati have been safely repatriated without importing Covid-19.
The bulk of them have come via Fiji but this is no longer viable given the ongoing community outbreak of the virus in that country.
In the first of a two part series I am joined by three members of the Kiribati repatriation taskforce Mauri ministers welcome on Pacific Waves I'll let you introduce yourselves.
