Christchurch is over represented in covid stats and has been for ages. Student numbers? The weather? Or people just don’t care about one another and pass covid around with abandon?

I think we lick too many escalator rails.  😆

And yes, before you ask, I have indeed made a mock poster about that sort of behaviour...

 I like your poster @4dfae064 👍 

I've recently been spending time in an Oncology ward and as soon as the hospital mask mandate was dropped, masking dropped from 100% to around 30% overnight. Patients only. All of the medical staff are still fully masked.

When I arrived in the waiting room, I felt like saying loudly "Good morning to everyone wearing a mask." But I didn't. 

The majority of people are ill-informed & lack empathy.

Sorry to hear that Bob, not the best place to visit. 

What surprised me was in the wider hospital almost all staff were unmasked too. 

Oh and the poster, I should have credited the background photo, Oetti, about 1971 - sure you'd know it!
