Poll: Do you think scanning should be compulsory at bars and nightclubs?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

Hi Auckland neighbours,

A leading coronavirus expert is urging the Government to make scanning mandatory at such potential "super-spreader" venues as bars and nightclubs.

The pleas follow figures revealing daily use of the Covid Tracer app has plummeted to a fifth of its peak.

Last Monday, a total of 515,759 scans were recorded nationwide, down from the high of 2.5 million on September 4.

Epidemiologist Dr Michael Baker said the next six months would be a “very dangerous” time for the country with a high risk of an outbreak while waiting for the vaccine roll-out in April.

Poll: Should NZ go Cash Less?

Weston & Associates Ltd Chartered Accountants

With more and more transactions now electronic and many businesses starting to go cash less, do we need cash anymore?

Even market stalls have eftpos these days.

Notes and coins cost the government to produce and update.
There are added security issues when handling cash in businesses and also added costs of banking large sums.

Money laundering and those working "under the table" could be reduced or eliminated. What do you think?
