THEY FOUND THE CAUSE OF SIDS
Excuse me while I cry for all the parents, including lead researcher Dr Carmel Harrington, who lived with guilt. And cry happy tears for parents in the future who will have access to screening and prevention. 😭
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
It is misleading to say that we have found the cause of SIDS; one study has identified an enzyme that might be a potential biomarker for SIDS vulnerability (correlation not causation). The correlation is statistically significant but relatively weak.

This is a great piece by Māori TV cameraman Rituraj Sapkota, who interviewed a number of press gallery camera operators about the riots last week.
It goes into detail about the harrowing level of abuse they received for 23 days, just for doing their job.

Yep, this is what our Kaumatua & Kuia have always said !! One’s belonging is always associated with the dynamics of Whanau, Hapu and Iwi !! Your actions and behaviours are dictated to, by the Tikanga and Kawa set by these groups that you belong to, not a Individualism concept.

Radio NZ have started updating vaccine status impact again now that booster data is included. It is stark.

Please DO NOT, when a death is announced from Covid say, 'but they had an underlying condition'. They would, most likely, still be alive if they didn't have covid.

RT if you're NOT going to the anti-vax protest in Wellington. Oops I mean anti-mandate.

Here’s to the real heroes of the weekend - those braving the elements to staff vaccination centres up and down the country. RT if you’d like to salute them rather than the vocal minority. #getboosted
