These workers get up every day to make sure our communities are safe and healthy. Yet they are paid as low as they legally can be.

High-risk for COVID-19 complications?

Helen from Point Chevalier

Hi everyone,

Please consider doing this if you are in the high-risk group and have to go out:

Pin a piece of white cloth to your clothing. (You could even write 'At High-Risk' on it to make it clear you are vulnerable, not infected - or part of a cult)

Hi everyone,

Please consider doing this if you are in the high-risk group and have to go out:

Pin a piece of white cloth to your clothing. (You could even write 'At High-Risk' on it to make it clear you are vulnerable, not infected - or part of a cult)

It will alert others to the fact that you are in this group, as I have seen some pretty poor social distancing/not covering when coughing going on.

For all those commenting that people in this group just shouldn't go out, not everyone is able to do this e.g they lack help with things like shopping (I can't even get through to online grocery delivery), they have vital medical appointments, they have children who need some air.

Also, if everyone applied social distancing correctly, then there would be no issue with those of us in the high-risk group having a short, daily walk - a lot of us have already been quite isolated by our conditions well before C-19 showed up.

I fall into this group, yet look healthy, so it's good for people to understand we're not just talking about the obviously elderly - although I think they should do this too. The more people who do this, the sooner others will understand what it means - someone had to wear the first pink ribbons etc.

There are already great people out there 'acting like they have COVID-19' as suggested by our PM. This is a quick, visual reminder, for those who aren't.

IF YOU DON'T LIKE THIS IDEA, PLEASE JUST IGNORE IT. I'M SIMPLY ATTEMPTING TO HELP FELLOW KIWIS IN MY POSITION NEGOTIATE A FRIGHTENING TIME.

REMEMBER, THIS LOCKDOWN COULD EASILY GO ON FOR LONGER, OR GET REINTRODUCED. UNTIL THERE IS A VACCINE, PROBABLY 18 MONTHS AWAY, THIS GROUP WILL REMAIN VULNERABLE EVEN WHEN THE MAJORITY GO BACK TO NORMAL DAILY LIFE .

Take care everyone.

Cheers,

Helen Morgan.

What is your neighbourhood doing to spread positivity during the lockdown?

Brittany Keogh Reporter from Central Leader

Hi neighbours, A Ponsonby psychologist's message for the community and wider NZ is: "it's OK not to be OK" during the lockdown. Dr Kirsten Wooff wrote the advice, along with 29 other mental health tips, on the footpath in chalk while out for a walk on Ponsonby Rd.

Tyre repair

Jeff from Freemans Bay

Walked past Grey Lynn Tyrepower today and saw he was open. If you get a flat it would pay to phone them and see if he is still available for emergencies.
