The way it works is that Folding uses some of your PC's computing power and helps to simulate the folding or unfolding of proteins in order to map how they will react. This allows for labs to try and find ways to battle a wide range of diseases like COVID-19.

If you have a working PC, the net and no data cap then please pitch in by getting the program and let your PC help fight for the cures for a range of ailments.

Tēnā koutou i tēnei ahiahi kiritata,

The Government has banned events of more than 500 people to halt the spread of the COVID-19 virus, a measure that will hit an already bruised economy after sweeping travel restrictions last week.

Dan Boyd, co-owner of herbs and spices supplier Raptor Naturals, said the business has been rocked by the cancellation of the Central District Field Days and other significant shows.

It relies on sales from big events for 30 per cent of its revenue.

More than 600 stands will also lose out on the benefits of the event.

What businesses in your area are feeling the pinch? Do you think they will survive the outbreak?
