Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

Another worrying week with an almost doubling of the cases in the National figures. It shows how easy it is to flare up if we drop our guards

Canterbury rose from 444 to 667 but once again the rest of the country rose even more, hence our % of the National figure dropped but we did have 223 more cases.
The winter cold and flu might be contributing, but winter is not really here yet.
Stay safe folks.

New - Deaths - % of National --- Cant new cases

6148 - 19...........................10.3% --- 667

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
