Covid-19 THoughts
Its about time there was better reporting on this.
To date according to my latest figures. 1312 cases activated. 422 recovered.
That tells me that there are now 890 active cases (This is NOT reported)
Of that number 4 have died 3 of these had OTHER underlying conditions (age range is 70, 80, and 90 years)
currently 15 are Hospitalized. 5 in Intensive care (NO reporting of OTHER complications or age)
PLEASE can we have more accurate reporting on this?
You would be blown away if I was to put up the stats for the last few years of the common FLU.
Don't get me wrong.
This is a dangerous Corona Virus. But there does (For some reason) seem to be a lot of sensationalizing of it.
This is also causing HUGE Conspiracy theories of what is REALLY happening. And some of them are just mind boggling.
Hope you are all well and keeping sane in your bubbles.
Blessings to all :)
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

Citizens Advice - real people, real support
In March, it is CAB Awareness Week! This is when we put a spotlight on the CAB to celebrate our mahi and highlight to the community the support and services we offer.
This year’s theme is ‘Tūturu te tangata, tūturu te tautoko – real people, real support. It reflects the fact that the CAB is a place where people can get help from a real person who will assist them with the questions, issues or challenges they are facing.
We are able to offer this person-to-person assistance because of our trained volunteers working out of our office here in New Plymouth. Our volunteers are the people who deliver our service of information and advice to the public. They volunteer for the CAB because they want to support and empower people and make a difference in people’s lives.
If you need support and don’t know who to ask, or if you would like to give back to the community through volunteering with an organisation whose mahi assists people individually and also benefits the wider community, CAB could be the place for you.
You can contact us by calling 06 758 9542 (or free phone 0800 367 222), by dropping in to see us at 32 Leach Street (no appointment needed), or by contacting us via the CAB website at cab.org.nz.
