Government Caught Out

Michael from Trentham

Has the NZ Government been caught out telling a porky surrounding the Covid vaccination saga?

Chris Hipkins (Minister for Covid 19 Response) said today that the Government is now telling people to get a second vaccination three weeks after the first instead of a six week gap because there is now sufficient vaccine available and a three week gap lessons further the possibility of becoming infected with Covid and Delta Covid.

Hold on.

Originally it was a three week gap between the initial vaccination and the booster vaccination until Jacinda Ardern and her Government told us that four, five and six weeks is better than three because it makes the vaccine in our bodies more effective.

Now Chris is saying something quite different.

Stand up the truth.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
