Covid update - National figures
Another worrying week with an almost doubling of the cases in the National figures. It shows how easy it is to flare up if we drop our guards
Canterbury rose from 444 to 667 but once again the rest of the country rose even more, hence our % of the National figure dropped but we did have 223 more cases.
The winter cold and flu might be contributing, but winter is not really here yet.
Stay safe folks.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
60% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️
As reported in the Press, the same low-pressure system that lashed the North Island over the weekend is now making its way south, bringing heavy rain and strong winds with it. It’s a soggy start to the week for many of us.
With more wild weather on the cards, we’re curious: do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? Or are you more of a “grab the torches and hope for the best” household?
-
33.3% Yes - we like to be prepared
-
50% Nah
-
16.7% This is on my to-do list!
