LEVEL 3 COVID-19 LOCKDOWN

Rodger from Sunnyvale

I am absolutely shocked that this has been treated so lightly
During the weekend I noticed hundreds of kids all over West Auckland being able to play on the play ground equipment especially Parrs Park
area and others in Auckland Area.

I am absolutely shocked that this has been treated so lightly
During the weekend I noticed hundreds of kids all over West Auckland being able to play on the play ground equipment especially Parrs Park
area and others in Auckland Area.
Surely under Level 3 these areas should have been fenced off with signage.
The council really need a huge "Brick" not having this done before the weekend etc
It seems to me lots of people are taking this Lockdown as a "holiday"
lots of people not wearing masks and no spacing.
We certainly do not want this to go to Level 4 especially in Auckland
will be disasterous for everyone.

😷Now we wait ...😷

Fiona from Henderson

Well, so much news in such a short period and not all of it good.
Wednesday was madness x10 in Auckland; the testing stations were so overwhelmed by the flood of 'need to be tested NOW' people.

Well, so much news in such a short period and not all of it good.
Wednesday was madness x10 in Auckland; the testing stations were so overwhelmed by the flood of 'need to be tested NOW' people.
From what I heard on Old Fart's FM (Talkback ZB), so many were turned away if they didn't show any symptoms by the Police, the people at the testing stations etc ...
One poor woman who has autoimmune problems and has been unwell for a few days was also turned away, even though her doctor had told her to go and get tested. She had been in the queue for 3+ hours already😥
Well, now this family of four have spread their infected tentacles far and wide across so many companies, and it has transpired that the company my husband works for is now seriously included.
So, off we went and joined the long queue of cars so we could get tested today. We will have to wait for a couple of days for the results.
In the meantime, we may also find ourselves in 14 days self isolation (just waiting for confirmation from the health authorities), all because of this selfish woman who chose to go to work each and every day, knowing that she had sniffles, fever and a cough!!!😠
No one can tell that they didn't know that they were ill with either a cold, the flu, in fact anything. How dare they travel and put so many of our lives at risk!!!
My blood is boiling and I want her and her family arrested for what they have done to so many families and companies now!!!!😠😠😠
The numbers of positives has risen to 19 (at this moment) and the numbers are rising rapidly!!!
