Let’s stop avoidable deaths in NZ. Sign this petition for better health care funding for Pharmac

Dana from Richmond

Did you know that NZ’s spend on medicine is the lowest of comparable OECD countries?

Or that in the last 5 years there were 3631 avoidable deaths due to a shortfall in funding for medicines?

How about that if you have advanced breast cancer and live outside of New Zealand you are twice as likely to survive?

For more information visit: fairnessinfocus.co.nz...

Australia funds 103 medicines that NZ does not have access to.

Is it fair that Kiwi women and men face worse health outcomes than patients in other comparable countries?

Maori women with breast cancer are 37% more likely to die than non-Maori.

As a breast cancer survivor I am committed to campaigning for others so they can have the best access to health care they deserve.

If you are concerned about the underfunding of Pharmac and avoidable deaths in NZ then sign this petition now on this a link...

Act now! Sign. Share. Tell others.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
