Wellington area covid data
Reported Covid hospitalisations in the Wellington area have surged lately. Case numbers are slowly climbing. The rolling average had dropped down to about 27% of March's peak but is now close to 32%. My guess is that this is due to a combination of less masking, and more time spent in poorly ventilated indoor environments.
It's a good time to get your booster if you haven't already done so, and getting a flu shot too will hopefully help our hospitals cope this winter by reducing transmission, even if you're not personally at risk.
Graphs show combined numbers from Capital & Coast and Hutt Valley DHBs.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
