Government plans to stretch out Pfizer stock as Delta cases mount😡

Fiona from Henderson

I just read this on the Stuff website and I'm fuming😡
www.stuff.co.nz...
🔹All the vaccines we sent to other countries (or was it just Fiji?) to help them and we are running short - WTH???
www.beehive.govt.nz...
AND
www.beehive.govt.nz...
🔹The next big deliveries of the Pfizer vaccines are due in October.
🔹All the people (including myself and my man) who have had their appointments postponed or cancelled - WTH???
🔹So many elderly people, health compromised people and dare I say it, front line workers who still haven't been vaccinated (for one reason or another) and yet ... (here we go) the youngsters are getting their vaccinations ahead of the afore mentioned people ... argh!!!!
🔹Then we find out that a new outbreak could risk a Christmas “under some level of restrictions” - betcha that's Auckland!!!!
The list goes on & on! Seriously WTH?
We can't leave to get vaccinated overseas, not that we could or want to in this current climate, but ... come on!!!!
Are we someone's social experiment or are we just someone's really bad example of how to make sure you order more than ENOUGH of any medical items?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
