Do you need to be tested for COVID-19?

Lisa Knight from MidCentral District Health Board

Hi Tararua, how are you feeling?

Do you have a winter sniffle? Coughing, sneezing, runny nose, sore throat? Have you lost your sense of smell or taste? Feverish or short of breath?

If you have any one of the above symptoms we would like to see you for a COVID-19 test at your local testing site.

It’s free and the Tararua testing centre is available from 9am to 4pm Monday to Friday, and 9am to 12pm on Saturday.
If you need a test on Sunday, we have a testing centre in Palmerston North that you can also visit.

Please call Healthline on 0800 358 5453 to get an appointment.

For more information on COVID-19 in our district, please visit covid19.mdhb.health.nz...

Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
