Get Vaccinated
All those eligible should be, must be vaccinated against Covid 19. It is the only way out of this mess.
Compulsory/mandatory vaccinations will come eventually I am sure at least in many occupations and industries.
A legitimate vaccination and covid tested passport will be issued eventually and will need to be produced for entry to many places and transport.
The weight of believeable science and proof of success of covid vaccines are too great to deny any further.
Let's help each other (neighbourly) and ourselves by getting vaccinated. We have the best vaccine on the "market" and it's available free. It will combat to an effective degree all the known strains of the virus.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
