Protect your whaanau against measles

The Team from Counties Manukau Health

Measles is one of the most infectious diseases, and now with 9 confirmed cases in Auckland, it's more important then ever to make sure you and your whaanau are immunised.

If you're unsure if you've been vaccinated, please go see your family doctor, particularly for our rangatahi. Whaanau with babies and young tamariki, please make sure they're immunised on time - 15 months and four years. This ensures the best protection.

For more information, contact your family doctor or call Healthline on 0800 611 116 for free advice. Helpful info can also be found on the Auckland Regional Public Health Service website - link below.

Dead cat

Salima from Goodwood Heights

I saw a dead cat on Everglade Drive this morning near the crossing of Keri Anne place. It had been placed near the pavement. Black and white colour. Young. Did not look like it had been dead too long. If you know anyone who is looking for a cat, please inform.
