6 tourists were hospitalized after drinking piña coladas at a resort in Fiji. Officials said the Fiji case was isolated, though it resembles a recent spate of tourist deaths in Laos. They were taken to Sigatoka Hospital after suffering nausea, vomiting, and "neurological symptoms" after drinking piña coladas at the Warwick Fiji Hotel, per The Fiji Times. The Warwick Fiji Hotel told the BBC it was "conducting a thorough investigation" to "gather all necessary information" while waiting for test results. Fiji's authorities and the Warwick Fiji Hotel didn't immediately respond to requests for comments made outside working hours.

CNN —Seven tourists are being treated for suspected poisoning after drinking cocktails at a bar in an upscale Fiji resort that’s now being investigated by police. Sydney resident David Sandoe told the Australian Broadcasting Corporation he’d received a call saying his daughter and granddaughter were among those hospitalized. The US embassy in Fiji told CNN that it was aware of the reports but had nothing to add. In Fiji, king suites offering views of palm trees and the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean cost roughly $500 a night. In a statement, Warwick Fiji said it was taking the matter “very seriously.”“At this moment, we do not have conclusive details, but we are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our guests,” the hotel said.
