Get out and get vaccinated
Mayor Wayne Guppy is urging Upper Hutt residents to get out and get vaccinated.
Upper Hutt was one pf the lowest vaccine rates in the region and experts warn that if Covid strikes it will hit hard.
His plea comes at a time when the Government is urging all New Zealanders to get vaccinated if they want to enjoy an outdoor summer.
Professor Michael Plank, from Canterbury University, said the Delta variant was “really good” at finding unvaccinated populations such as Upper Hutt.
“We also know that any under-vaccinated groups will be at high risk of experiencing a fast-growing outbreak and suffering from higher rates of severe illness, hospitalisation and death.”

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
