Malaghan Month

Just Paterson

It's not just cancer that they are fighting!

Multiple sclerosis is a disease affecting over 3,500 New Zealanders, resulting in loss of movement, feeling, vision and cognition. There are around 14 different drugs treating one form of the disease but only one treatment for progressive forms of the disease. This single treatment only treats a subset of the individuals with the progressive form.

The brave team at the Malaghan Institute are working on developing a new-immune based therapy to treat these victims that have no treatment plan. Read more about their research and get behind them this #MalaghanMonth!

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
