đ˘Faults in the 'new' R.A.T.s testing systemđ˘
So, round and round we go, where it stops, nobody knows.
And boy with this new testing system, ain't that the damn truth?
So, the public shouted long and hard for this system and now weâve got it.
Yes the positives are instant results (sort of) and no more long queues to get tested or long(ish) waits for the results from the PCR testing â yippee!!
Sadly, the negatives are outnumbering the positives in this race.
đ¸First. Who the heck can afford to keep on buying the test kits, especially if you are required to do it weekly or in this round of the virus, almost daily?
Why should we be paying for them with this economic disaster happening all around us?
The lower income families sure as heck canât afford this and do they keep on going down to the testing station for free tests and if so, when will they be cut off?
How do they get to the testing station with the price of petrol now, in fact how can any of us afford to drive down there now?
đ¸Second. Itâs now out in Tik-Tok land on how to cheat the system using these tests, especially for those little darlings who want a few days off school
đ¸Third. Who is going to monitor that the person who needs to be tested is actually taking the test? Whatâs to stop them from asking one of their âpositiveâ mates to do the test for them?
đ¸Forth. Once youâve done the test, you are required to record your results on the âMy Covid Record Healthâ site or via phone. Hereâs where itâs become an honesty box scenario now, thus easy to cheat, lie or not even record the result.
All you need to do is click on âReport a Test Resultâ once youâve logged in. Click who you are reporting the result for i.e. Myself or Someone else, add mobile number and then click positive or negative. THATâS IT!!!
And these are just four faults. The list is longer.
So tell me how can that be monitored properly to avoid all these discrepancies?
How can they prove that you took the test?
How can we be sure that all of these thousands of positive results are in fact accurate?
Is someone selling their ânegativeâ nasal cavities for those wanting a negative result?
Do I trust this new testing system? NO!!!
When PCR testing was the option, I knew that the super hard working people in the labs and the testers themselves, were over worked and overwhelmed by the large numbers; but this new testing system has more faults than we could even begin to dream about.
I know the PCR system is an uncomfortable one, long queues etc⌠but I trust that test 100% more than these R.A.T.s.
A Neighbourly Riddle! Donât Overthink It⌠Or Do?đ
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!
If you multiply this number by any other number, the answer will always be the same. What number is this?
Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the âunpaid shiftâ) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.5% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.5% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
Even Australians get it - so why not Kiwis???
âTen years ago, if a heatwave as intense as last weekâs record-breaker had hit the east coast, Australiaâs power supply may well have buckled. But this time, the system largely operated as we needed, despite some outages.
On Australiaâs main grid last quarter, renewables and energy storage contributed more than 50% of supplied electricity for the first time, while wholesale power prices were more than 40% lower than a year earlier.
[âŚ] shifting demand from gas and coal for power and petrol for cars is likely to deliver significantly lower energy bills for households.
Last quarter, wind generation was up almost 30%, grid solar 15% and grid-scale batteries almost tripled their output. Gas generation fell 27% to its lowest level for a quarter century, while coal fell 4.6% to its lowest quarterly level ever.
Gas has long been the most expensive way to produce power. Gas peaking plants tend to fire up only when supply struggles to meet demand and power prices soar. Less demand for gas has flowed through to lower wholesale prices.â

If even Australians see the benefit of solar - then why is NZ actively boycotting solar uptake? The increased line rental for electricity was done to make solar less competitive and prevent cost per kWh to rise even more than it did - and electricity costs are expected to rise even more. Especially as National favours gas - which is the most expensive form of generating electricity. Which in turn will accelerate Climate Change, as if New Zealand didnât have enough problems with droughts, floods, slips, etc. already.
