Covid-19: Scanning scarce at some Auckland supermarkets
Fewer than 10 per cent of shoppers are scanning in at some Auckland supermarkets after another community outbreak of Covid-19 hit the region.
The Ministry of Health had revealed fewer than one in six people who have downloaded the Covid Tracer App are using it daily.
Stuff reporters were outside three different supermarkets in three parts of Auckland on Monday- Ponsonby Countdown, Pak n' Save Lincoln Rd, Henderson and Manukau Pak n' Save.
All up, Stuff reporters saw 81 people sign in at the three supermarkets, out of a total of 432 shoppers.
Do you use the Covid Tracer App?
Why or why not?
For those who don't sign in, is this decision prompted by privacy concerns, or something else?
Would be interested to hear your thoughts.

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)
.
