What's a "jeely piece?"
Why are some doctors at risk of becoming vending machines?
Where is the teardrop at the bottom of the world?
Who looked after Mrs McGaw's cat?
When was the first time a patient
consulting a doctor had a better than fifty-fifty chance of profiting
from the encounter?
The answer to these, and many other questions are contained in my
recently published book, “The Last, the Least, the Lonely and the Lost,” an odyssey of intriguing stories, fascinating facts and unique insights into life, medicine and society. This memoir provides a distinctive perspective on the joys and challenges of clinical practice in New Zealand, Australia, the UK and Canada. Issues covered include disinformation, inequalities in society, struggling health systems and the commodification of medicine.

More information is attached, and is available at: www.brian-mcavoy.com....

Enjoy, and please let me know what you think.

An email scam has re-emerged that references Police and other justice sector partners.

The email claims authorities have done a search of the email recipient’s computer locating explicit illegal material, and that a reply is needed within 48 hours or a warrant will be issued for their arrest.

This email is a scam and anyone who receives it should not reply under any circumstances. Although some versions of the email do not specifically reference money, other similar scams involve the recipient being issued a ‘fine’ when they respond. Police have received several reports of this scam and enquiries are underway.

It’s important to note that Police and other government agencies will never contact you out of the blue and ask for your password, credit card or bank details.
Anyone who received this email scam is asked to send it as an attachment in an email to the Police Cybercrime Team: cybercrime@police.govt.nz

Police recommend taking a cautious approach to unsolicited emails.
- Trust your gut instinct - if it doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.
- Information on other scams currently operating can be found on the Consumer Protection website.
- Netsafe can also provide some helpful advice about keeping safe online.
