What is going on in NZ??

 https://youtu.be/AZR5lBjMdoM


This is a clip from WHO from a couple of months ago. At the time, while people laughed and said it would never happen here, that they couldn’t have meant what it sounds like, some of us watched the Covid Response Act pass and warned that this is exactly the senario that we should be wary of in New Zealand.


Fast forward to this week ... and here it is.


After Dr. Bloomfield’s announcement yesterday, I have been trying to get clear information from MoH about what they are proposing for Covid positive cases. What can families expect to happen?

Will removal to quarantine be compulsory?

Will children be accompanied?

What happens to solo parents with a few kids?

What about large families?

How many can go?

And so on ...


It looked last night like there might be some clarity. I was told that quarantine would be voluntary and Covid positive children could take a parent or guardian. 


But this morning, I have read accounts by of two families currently in regular quarantine who kids were tried to be removed from them. One woman with 5 kids threatened contacting lawyers to keep her 11 and 12 year olds in her room. The other fought to keep her 2 year old with her. What is going on?


This morning I was also told by the Covid response team that although parents and children would stay together should a child be found Covid positive, quarantine would be mandatory.


When I pressed for more details and highlighted the inconsistencies in the statements I was receiving, a well as gross vagueness, I was directed to watch the briefing at 1pm where all would be explained.


So I watched that briefing. Bloomfield told us that the cluster of 38 are in quarantine. He didn’t make it clear who was with staying with who, and he didn’t give any information about what happens in future cases.


Not one reporter asked any questions about it.


So, right now we don’t know if quarantine is mandatory or voluntary for community cases.

We don’t know what happens if a parent is found positive - can they take children into quarantine, and if so, how many? Who’s paying?

Is there a charge for non-positive people? We are told that quarantine is proposed to minimise family spread but we don’t know if families will be able to stay together or will be separated once inside.


We don’t know anything. 


And now, the thread where I and others were corresponding with the Covid team - looks like it’s been deleted.


What’s going on New Zealand?

Do you know what happens to your family if you or one of your children tests positive?

The Power of Chiropractic

Image
Chiropractic is far more than just "clicking bones" and "aligning the spine." Chiropractic is about achieving the optimal potential of the body,and ensuring that there is no nerve interference. When the body can work as it is designed to,then many 'symptoms' take care of themselves. This is why I refer to my favourite phrase of "finding the cause rather than treat a symptom." Bed wetting is a great example of that. I have had many young children over the years who have been brought in to me to 'treat' bed wetting. I don't claim to heal patients of any condition,including bed wetting. But what I do claim is this. I'll 'adjust' the spine and relieve the spine of any mechanical dysfunction and any spastic musculature,that could possibly be impinging on the nervous system. I'll deliver specific adjustments to a specific bone and move it in a specific direction. Once the nervous system dysfunction has been addressed

Create the fear then retract it

“Government responses should focus on detecting and isolating infected people with symptoms, the World Health Organization said.”  https://www.cnbc.com/2020/06/08/asymptomatic-coronavirus-patients-arent-spreading-new-infections-who-says.html?fbclid=IwAR2r5WPKxZUVIyVWb1Pqt2Z8pkI3w7iEL05baC_mJ51UhyD4eYQjJbRh_4Q "From the data we have, it still seems to be rare that an asymptomatic person actually transmits onward to a secondary individual," Dr. Maria Van Kerkhove, head of WHO's emerging diseases and zoonosis unit, said at a news briefing from the United Nations agency's Geneva headquarters. "It' s very rare." Very convenient to create the fear then try and retract it now.
