Not to be confused with American Samoa.

Samoa is located 64 km (40 mi) west of American Samoa, 889 km (552 mi) northeast of Tonga (closest foreign country), and 1,152 km (716 mi) northeast of Fiji.


Covid jab dry run?

In 2019, the population was told to put a red flag outside their house to identify them as unvaccinated against measles.
