Seven foreign tourists hospitalized in Fiji after drinking cocktails at a resort bar were not poisoned by alcohol or illicit drugs, officials said Wednesday following a toxicology report. The tourists, including Australians and an American, were hospitalized with nausea, vomiting and neurological symptoms. Initial suspicions of methanol poisoning were a blow to Fiji's tourism industry, but officials have confirmed no evidence of alcohol poisoning or illicit substances in the drinks.
