Back to Tony’s statement re today’s numbers - The update today on the MoH Āwhina app tells us that the numbers are not a full 24 hours as they have changed from midnight to midnight rather than from 9am to 9am. I have tried to link it but my phone is not ...
I'm struggling enough with the thought that Boris is trying his best to do exactly that with his "Freedom Day". I don't even want to go near contemplating what the consequences of his arrogance and stupidity may actually mean. I just keep reinforcing to ...
Whoever it was that gave themselves the label "Groundswell" had obviously not done a great deal of research on that particular word. They might be a little startled to find that Groundswell in the UK is all about regenerative farming practices, ...
Essentially the Act is about protection of the public - makes sure that all those who are covered by it have appropriate qualifications, standards and scopes of practice etc and prevents others who do not have the right training from being able to call ...
Chinese medicine to be included under the Health Practitioners Competence Assurance Act (HPCAA). Now that's a big step for the government. http://www.voxy.co.nz/health/5/388498
I have never understood why so many Nelsonians have backed Nick Smith. The reaction from most people I know was to cheer loudly at his departure. I've only been on the receiving end of his bile once and that was more than enough but a family member had to ...
Well that's a creative way to read the outcome of the study. Did you not see this statement? "In this single-center retrospective cohort study, COVID-19 risk increased among Black individuals with vitamin D level less than 40 ng/mL compared with those with...
He's a Murdoch man through and through. Almost even too right wing for many Aussies.
Only observation of my own circumstance and that of friends of a similar era - but may provide something of an answer as to why more men than women continue with regular use. Everyone I knew through my twenties smoked - some more than others but it was ...
I had a lengthy conversation with one of "them Chinese immigrants" from the Botany electorate on Sunday. He was well versed on what was happening in their electorate, knew the names of all the candidates and was not inclined at all to vote for Jamie-Lee or...
Thanks - great clip. Well worth taking the 16 minutes to watch.
Interesting - thanks. I'll watch a few more of Dr Campbell's videos and see what he has to say.
But still not as many as die from influenza every year. Pretty tough if your own number comes up though, regardless of how many others are going with you.
WHO are not recommending travel restrictions yet we have imposed them and then extended them. Jacinda has also recommended that we treat the situation as though it had been already called as a pandemic (which as yet it has not been) so that all the right ...
Indeed. I'd be picking that the numbers contracting the virus will continue to increase but the majority will recover. It will be interesting to watch - and learn from.
I have been following the whole coronavirus thing very closely and I have confidence that Jacinda Ardern and the Ministry of Health really do have this in hand. On the MoH website - which is being updated at least daily - they state: "The likelihood of an ...
From what I can gather from speaking to people across the political spectrum here at the top of the South (not just my friends and family - some of whom, incidentally, are blue to the depths of their souls - family that is, not friends so much) even the ...
“He’s really well liked up there”. Not by anyone I know. And the Labour and Green candidates got more votes than he did last time round so many locals clearly think it’s time for him to go.
Don’t forget that the Crown were able to produce photos from his phone. If they found other photos or messages on that phone that would have a bearing on this or any subsequent trial then it makes sense to continue name suppression.
That's definitely the subdivision but the reality does not match the pictures in the article. What they are actually building are two storey square boxes, each one slightly offset from their neighbour. As my friend said yesterday, far more like chook ...
Hi Greywarshark, have you seen the housing they are putting on the new subdivision on the corner of Lower Queen and McShane's here in Richmond? Uninviting is about as positive as I could get. Someone I was speaking to this morning asked me if they had ...
Tim King has flown in for Tasman. Don’t expect any great changes here then - same backers just with a different front man. It will be interesting to see the breakdown of the different wards. Apparently Golden Bay has gone for a complete change - wise folks...
Agreed. I grew up in one of those streets pictured (50+ years ago) and can remember how exciting it was to see how far up the water came. It never came into the house but certainly lapped the top step a few times. Visitors to the city find it a little odd ...
indeed. In my line of work I frequently deal with social workers - DHB as well as Oranga Tamariki. I have yet to meet one who does not care passionately about their work and the people they work with. Without exception, the situations in which they find ...
When I used to work with new mums we used phytolacca cream/lotion to help ease mastitis. Applied topically and gently massaged into the painful, reddened areas of the breast - not ingested. Very effective. I didn’t ever make it myself but understand that ...
Mirror image the left side of his face and then the right - you'll see two completely different people. Himself - and then the face he shows to the world. But which is which?
I heard the person from ? The Financial Review on RNZ this morning say that it was around the $25,000 mark as well. Last night Lisa Owen got John Key to admit that it was in the "mid tens of thousands". Personally I would put mid as being in the 40-70 ...
Oh dear - my apologies for not waiting for the full story. The serpentine rock was sent to Tauranga and not Taranaki. The second shipment was quarantined then sent back to the quarry Lee Valley - the same valley as they are planning to dam. It was the ...
https://www.stuff.co.nz/business/112544834/waimea-water-boss-pumped-to-be-part-of-legacy-dam-project But not a mention of the fact that in the construction of the road they have found substantial amounts of asbestos and that Work Safe have actually shut ...
I first went to see Notre Dame simply because it was one of those things to do when you go to Paris. I was completely unprepared for the overwhelming sense of awe which flooded over me when I stood inside and looked up toward the magnificent round stained ...
This may have already been posted but I haven't seen it. No power here today so am just starting to catch up on things. A friend sent this link through to me last night and I did expect to see some reference to it in at least one of the local papers - ...
