Abstract

New Caledonia is a French territory in the South Pacific Ocean. While COVID-19 is expanding over the world, the situation on our island seems controlled with a total of 18 documented cases. We report the measures implemented on our island that probably helped contain the epidemic spread.

Keywords: COVID-19; New Caledonia; SARS-CoV-2; containment; epidemic.
