Seven foreigners hospitalized after drinking cocktails at a resort bar in Fiji

A group of seven people, including five tourists from Australia and the US, and two foreigners living in Fiji, were hospitalized after drinking at a bar at the Warwick Resort on Fiji's Coral Coast. The incident occurred on Saturday, and by Monday, two of the patients had returned to Sydney.
There's a real terrifying sense of deja vu.
We don't want to speculate on exactly the cause; we don't know that yet. But what we do know is that it was limited to only seven tourists at one resort and only at one bar in that resort as well.
The resort management has assured us that they have not engaged in practices such as substituting ingredients or altering the quality of drinks served to guests.
It's the first time we've seen something like this in Fiji. So we are really determined to find out what the reason [for the suspected poisoning] is.
The people in the hospitality industry are in a state of shock right now.
This is the only reported case of its kind that we've experienced in recent memory, and certainly nothing like this has been experienced this year.
