Seek regular healthcare
While there's one disease on everyone's mind right now, that doesn't mean you still can't get sick or injured other ways. That's why it's important to talk to a health professional if you aren't well, even during lockdown.
The way these services operate might be a little different than normal - for example your GP might be talking to you over the phone rather than seeing you in person, but they are still there to help if you require medical advice. So don't delay in seeking healthcare.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
