The Hutt Valley and Wellington regions are experiencing a community-wide outbreak of respiratory viruses, including RSV.

Gemma Elizabeth from Hutt Valley District Health Board

The Hutt Valley and Wellington regions are experiencing a community-wide outbreak of respiratory viruses, including RSV. This can cause serious respiratory infections in very young children, elderly and immune-compromised people.

As a result, we are implementing some visitor restrictions and advise the following:

- Please do not visit our hospital wards if you have had fever, cough, sore throat, or runny nose in the past 24 hours.

- Children under 12 should not visit a hospital unless there is a clear medical need.

Children under 12 are not permitted to visit SCBU, the Children's ward and the Maternity and Delivery ward.

For more information, please visit our website: www.huttvalleydhb.org.nz...

Thanks for helping us keep our patients and community safe.

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?
