Wellington area covid data
Reported Covid hospitalisations in the Wellington area have surged lately. Case numbers are slowly climbing. The rolling average had dropped down to about 27% of March's peak but is now close to 32%. My guess is that this is due to a combination of less masking, and more time spent in poorly ventilated indoor environments.
It's a good time to get your booster if you haven't already done so, and getting a flu shot too will hopefully help our hospitals cope this winter by reducing transmission, even if you're not personally at risk.

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!
