Committee abandons SPCA ship

Matt Bowen Reporter from Waikato Times

Morning all,

Waikato's beleaguered SPCA branch is no longer under local control.

After closing in December, head office has stepped in and limited services are set to resume on Tuesday, January 31.

Let's hope they're up and running at full capacity again soon.

This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!

Remember 86% of Kiwis want to get to know their neighbours better, but just don't see them around much (71%). Take the first step!

Measles alert for passengers on Air New Zealand flight from Singapore
8:16pm

Travellers who arrived at Auckland International Airport on Air New Zealand flight NZ281 from Singapore at midnight on January 25 may have been exposed to measles from a six-year-old boy.

Source: 1 NEWS
The boy was infectious while on the flight.
The Auckland Regional Public Health Service says passengers closest to the boy were seated in rows 34 to 49.
"If you feel unwell, please don't visit your doctor. It is important to call first, because measles is highly infectious and people with measles can infect others in the waiting room," says Dr David Sinclair, the area's medical officer of health.

It could be another five days before symptoms appear but if anyone seated in those rows knows they don't have immunity to measles they can be vaccinated, and that could prevent the symptoms developing.
He says any passengers on that flight who start to feel unwell should telephone their doctor or call Healthline on 0800 611-116 for advice.
ARPHS is attempting to contact all exposed people, checking whether they are susceptible to measles infection, and offering advice which includes further immunisation, or possibly isolation to avoid spreading the disease.
People most at risk of contracting the disease are those who have not had the measles, mumps, rubella (MMR) vaccine, or who have just had one dose of the vaccine. Anyone born before 1969 is likely to be immune to the disease without having had the vaccine.
Dr Sinclair says measles is infectious before the rash appears and is one of the most infectious airborne diseases. Other passengers on the flight could also be infected.
One in 10 people with measles need hospital treatment and the most serious cases can result in deafness or swelling of the brain.
The time delay from being exposed to measles to developing symptoms is usually eight to 14 days, but can be up to 21 days.
The first symptoms are a fever, and one or more of a runny nose, cough and sore red eyes.
Then a red blotchy rash comes on and lasts up to one week. The rash usually starts on the face and spreads to the rest of the body.
