I thought every one had the right to make their own decision but no longer is this the case so we get more like North Korea each time this government make a further decision to attempt to control the spread of this virus
Surely they must realize we have to learn to live with this virus as it is no longer possible to eliminate itcompletely from NZ
and i thought i would never ever see a NZ government try to blackmail its population
Although I believe in having the jabs is in peoples best interest both for themselves and everyone else but no government have the right to take that decision away from its citizens
What ever is happening to gods own

On Thursday, the Ministry of Health said it became aware of the two positive cases from the same household in Christchurch on Wednesday evening.
One had travelled from Auckland on October 15 and infected someone they live with. The pair, who are family members, are both unvaccinated.
Hipkins said the two cases had not been scanning QR codes regularly, but were being co-operative with health authorities.
Christchurch will stay in alert level 2 and there are no major exposure events linked to the cases.
Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield confirmed one of the cases was a truck driver who had driven around Christchurch and north of the city.
Thirteen locations of interest in Christchurch have been identified as of 4.35pm. Click here to see where they are.
More updates will be posted on Stuff as soon as they're available.

The population in the Waikato is approximately 435174 to meet the target of 90% vaccinated that about 391657 people.

Currently those vaccinated are 305128 with the first dose and 246417 second dose. based upon the average doses each day 1225 first doses given and 1080 second doses given we need to; get vaccinated ASAP based upon the above figures it will take about 88 days or about 22 January 2022 to reach 90% of the first dose and about 110 days to reach the 90% for the second dose or being on target approximately 13 February 2022.
If you haven't received your first dose yet do it NOW.
If you haven't received your second dose yet and its been at least three weeks do it NOW ALSO.
This virus is gaining a hold in the Waikato lets join together trust the facts and get the VAX - get vaccinated NOW.
Waikato population is about 8.5% of the total NZ population but we are falling behind with only about 8.25% being vaccinated each day result the more we increase the rate the quicker we have a safer community and less pressure on health care services.
WE CAN ALL PLAY A PART BY LIFTING THESE DAILY AVERAGE NUMBERS HIGHER AND SAVING OUR COMMUNITY AND POTENTIAL LIVES, INCLUDING LESS CHANCE OF MORE PRESSURE ON OUR NURSES AND HOSPITAL THEY NEED OUR HELP.
LETS START NOW.
Well said a reminder not one person has lost their freedom, we have freedom in this country because of those that paid the heavy price with their life and those that fought alongside them. Remember it was won by following their leaders in order to win victory. The Jews were persecuted and suffered 6 million deaths at the hands of Hitler Combined nations stood together and put an end to those deaths. We need to stand united against this pandemic and I encourage you that are not vaccinated get vaccinated NOW. Those against vaccination are following the tactics used by Hitler to divide our nation, united we stand divided we fall. Democracy we have is freedom to engage and enjoy.
I am raising this to everyone out there with better memory than I might have, or people who actually record the covid press conferences and can go through them to sort this one out?...

I am absolutely sure that sometime in the past week, the PM stated that on Friday (22.10.2021) when they reveal the big plan, they will also address the concerns some groups, or individuals, might have about the mRNA vaccines. I am absolutely sure this was mentioned.
And here I am full of hope that they can actually come up with an alternative and fill that gap to the 100% vaccination, which will get the PM again on the Times magazine cover. But I listened to the 10 a.m. press conference today and I did not pick up anything about this alternative to the mRNA vaccine.
Or was it addressed and I missed it?... I picked up on only $2 bilion a month (actually $950 milion per fortnight) intended to be spent on businesses in various forms of support. But nothing about any alternative to the mRNA vaccine which as I recall it, was intended to "alleviate the concerns" some people might have.
Does anyone recalls when (if) such "promise" was made?
We're leading the way! Way to go whanau!

There's a case in South Island today. Hopefully it will be contained, but it's unlikely it's the last.
I've noticed a lot of children not wearing masks even though the advice is that masks are strongly encouraged. Even if you think your kids will be fine, wearing masks slows the spread making it less likely that covid will reach the kids that won't be fine. Whenever there is an outbreak some kids do still get sick or worse and there are some vulnerable kids in our community that are more at risk. Let's do our part to looks after them :-)
You can find kids masks online at The Market

or some more upmarket ones at Meo
