Join the SUN Study at the University of Auckland
Is your baby getting ready to start solids? Researchers at the University of Auckland are looking for parents/caregivers of 300 babies living in Auckland who plan to introduce solids at around 6 months of age to participate in an exciting study! We’re investigating how the introduction of solids influences babies’ gut bacteria and whether the introduction of a particular food can help to protect against infection. If you, or anyone you know is interested, check out www.thesunstudy.auckland.ac.nz... or contact thesunstudy@auckland.ac.nz.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
