Covid update - National figures

Gordon from Halswell

This has to be even better news as new cases have dropped even further nationally, despite reports in the media saying there was another rise.
1761 has not been seen for a long while, perhaps the cold weather is actually helping? Unlike the flu.
Let us keep up the good work and stay safe.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
