Former guests of the Fiji resort at the centre of a mass poisoning have revealed they also developed a mystery illness after drinking cocktails at the five-star venue. Six tourists aged between 18 and 56 were rushed to Lautoka Hospital on Saturday after sipping pina coladas at the Warwick Resort on the holiday island's Coral Coast.
Four of the guests - including three Australians - have since been discharged. Two women - a Fijian and an Australian - remain in hospital on Tuesday night after spending the past three days in ICU. Now, holidaymakers who recently stayed at the resort have revealed they also fell ill after consuming cocktails at the resort's bars.
'My husband and I were there two weeks ago and he had the same cocktail [a pina colada] and was sick with chills and sweats,' one woman wrote online. '[It was] very strange.'. A man who stayed at the hotel in late November said his group bought drinks from one of the bars that were 'completely undrinkable'.
'They tasted like pure alcohol (not strong mixes),' he said. Four Australians, a Fijian, and an American were rushed to hospital on Saturday after drinking at Warwick Fiji (pictured) on the holiday island's Coral Coast.
