 Hello, hello. Can you hear me? Hello. Hello. Okay, looks like my sound is working. Is anybody out there? Is my sound working? I'm so sorry. It's now telling me that my sound is on. Yes, oh my gosh, sorry. What the heck? I think it was just like really, really slow, so... Anyway, sorry. We only have like 15 minutes before the announcement today, but hey, we are on. What's going on? Yeah, so I did have like 65 people on here and now I don't. That's okay. I am just happy to meet with whoever is here. Chicago, how are you? What's going on? What's going on? Summer it is... I would switch my camera, but I'm not gonna do that. You know, so that you can see how cold and rainy it is here today. So hi from Waikato, hi from Chicago, where the rest of you, I had some Auckland and some in the cargo and... Yeah, sorry, I'm gonna blame the Hutt Valley Internet. That's what I'm gonna do. Yeah, so we're all working hard today, but I was like, oh, I don't know. I have been meaning to try a YouTube live and since everybody is home in New Zealand anyway, and I guess in the States because it would be the evening. Yeah, I thought we would chat. Hi from Capiti Coast, North Island, Auckland. Hey, Steven. Timaru, Florida. Melbourne, how are you? Guess you guys are? Are you guys still locked down? I have lost all realization of everything because it's always so much. So anyway, good to have like 32 of you here. That's so great. Yeah, sorry. I'm really good with technology. Typically, I am the IT hardware person at most organizations. So I'm not an idiot when it comes to it. It's just, I don't know why. Everything was lined up the way that I had planned and then just wasn't working. So I think it was just a delay. So how is everyone? Are we happy about the lockdown or are we feeling frustrated about the lockdown? I personally, like, ooh, a Brazilian living in New Zealand for 17 years. Were you a Brazilian dancer? Like, were you a Brazilian? You know, I always think they're so cool. Sorry. That was my little Brazilian dance. You're welcome. Yeah, so I think that the lockdown will be seven days now that it's confirmed that it's Delta, but do I know? I don't know. Yeah, technology is wonderful when it works. Yeah, so I my whole family gets excited about lockdown because we all get to be together. My daughter is at Otago University and it's coming back now tomorrow. She was scheduled to come back next Friday. So this is all good news for us. And you know, it just is great to like slow down. So New Zealand is so great with their work-life balance, but as an American here, I'm still not good at it, to be honest. I work a lot. So hiya, hiya. So it's just when someone just says you can't do anything. You can't get together with anybody. Nothing is open. It just makes all my decisions easy. So we'll just hang out. It's good. So that's what I'm going to do. Lots of work to do. Trying some new things, hence the live. Like I've been dying to go live, but just sort of any time. And today, you know, just like everything. I was speaking at an event today, which if I'm going to be honest, wasn't really ready for. No audio in the UK. Oh, sorry. I don't know what to say. Long lines at KFC. Yes, I did run through McDonald's, got some nugs at like 9 p.m for the family, because we just like to do a nug rub every once in a while. And since it's going to be closed, how anything gets in kiwis locked out. I know, right? Yeah, so my rubbish guy came. So that's nice. I did go to the food store last night because I needed to anyway, and I felt a little bit like I had more free time, but I wasn't thinking about all the crazy people that would be there. But let me tell you guys, it was so funny because I got to see some funny stuff last night. The line, I'm going to post a YouTube, I'm going to post a YouTube, what am I going to do? A YouTube short. I was just working on it. I will post it in a few minutes. After this is done. Hey, Lex. Just so you saw the line at the food store and like I just saw some crazy stuff and I didn't videotape it because I didn't really realize it was happening when it was happening. Okay. So this guy in the line, so I'm in the line. So the line is so like, here's the checkout, right? The line went all the way to the back of the store, then all the way around it. It was so long. So I'll send a short to you about that. So it's pretty funny. Oh gosh. Hi from lower hut. Sorry. I'm just get distracted. I need to talk. Okay. So this guy in front of me, he has this huge thing of toilet paper. I'm not joking. Like I can't believe I don't have this on video. And the lady comes up to him and she was like, hey, you can't buy all that toilet paper at one person. And he's like, it is one because what it was, it was the full pack of toilet paper. But in like, you know, like where they shipped it and it was put in a big bag in a bigger bag of like 10 or 20. So he was it was still in a bag, but it was like, I don't know, because everybody was restocking show so much. And all the restock stuff stuff was out. And so I was like, oh my gosh, I was like, okay. And she's like, is this what you would normally buy for your family? And he was like, yes. She's like, no, it's not happening. She gave him one. It was so great. So there was no meat, no dairy, like, I mean, okay, there's cream. You can get any milk. There is no, what was it? Bread. There was no flour. There's no, no, there's sugar. There was a couple of sugars left. It'll all be restocked. Nobody needs to worry in New Zealand. That's not what I'm saying. I just was, it was fascinating because I couldn't get any bread. So we're eating wraps this week. So you know, no big deal. You just adjust, right? It was like, but literally no bread. And like, I couldn't get a part, I don't know. Like I was just already out of everything. I actually needed to get paper. So you can see my because I have one roll left in the house and there's five of us, almost six of us here. So kind of need toilet paper. So yay for rubbish still being picked up. Girl, do you guys have that thing? Because I have that thing about the rubbish. Like I just want you to take it. I want it to go. I love rubbish day that they have it came. I know. So we're like locked down for like three days here at Wellington. People are freaking out, although probably because we all know it's going to be longer than that. You know, because really the last lockdown, I had bought flour like ahead of the lockdown, just because I do a lot of baking. So I happened to have bought it, but then it was sold out the entire time of lockdown. So I think that that's what people are thinking. And, you know, you just can't always control human behavior as, as Jacinda said yesterday. So the live report is coming up soon. Should we watch it together? That would be kind of fun. How do I get on it on my computer? TVNZ? Can I get it live? Or I think it was like on stuff. I can get it live. Oh, middle of moving house, and you live in the core of Mando. Do I think Jacinda made the right decision? I have to say that I think this was my family's reaction. We are all moving to level four where the whole country is moving to level four. Like it was just like, I don't think that we expected that. Yeah, we can't hide from it forever, but we don't have a significant portion of our population vaccinated. So all of these kinds of things come into play. But man, I mean, do you, like if you were this person, or that, what, what is that, that limousine driver or whatever in Australia? I don't know, like, I don't know. So yeah, do I know, do I think it's the right decision? I'm just glad it's not for me to make. It's for a minute. Not easy to do. Yeah, we were just like, wait a minute, she just said the whole country because you totally expected that, possibly at Auckland, but wow. Okay, so everything's normal in Melbourne now. No more supermarket rush. The lockdown in Sydney is a joke. Okay, so my research assistant is partner was stuck in the lockdown in Sydney and he was flying back today and I'm like, oh my gosh, are you going to be able to get on the plane because you need to be here because, so what's 23%. What are you talking about? Oh, I see. I say 20% have their second shot so far. Yeah, it's just not enough people. And I think that that's why, you know, like, are we more susceptible because we've had like literally no exposure to COVID? I don't know. They talked about that. I watched, did you watch that? Like it was last week and they had like a whole morning of doctors telling their thoughts on it, what we should do and just like an like an open kind of discussion and that was really interesting, kind of touching on all of it. Our problem is like my youngest is 10. So like, can't even get vaccinated. So can we even, you know, even think about traveling if that ever happens. Hello from Indiana. That's so cool. We have a lot of people on here. Like, I have not done this. I've generally only gone live on TikTok. You don't follow me on TikTok. Check it out. And yeah. So do I miss the Midwest? I think I'm in three. Okay. Anti-vaxxers and panic fires. Well, I honestly was there because I had some free time. Now that everything was going to shut down and so and I needed some food and I'm really glad I went. Like I hate going to the food store. So I almost just like, saw the crowd and just like drove out. But then I was like, this could make interesting. It was interesting. You can't make this stuff up. You got to be there to see it. Home renovations on the list this time. No, I'm a renter. So no, we can get organized. That's what we can do. But that's it. Okay. So are we, can we, I have another screen here. Let me see if I can get, if she's coming on live soon. Here we go. I have Jacinda and Ashley. I work with Ashley Bloomfield's brother. There's my connection. Okay. So do you guys have this up? Can you get it up? Could I show it on here? Probably not going to do that. I'll just react to it. How about that? Okay. Let's see if my internet will let me do both. Ooh, look at me. It's struggling. Okay. So she's not there yet. So I have it on mute. Then we can all watch it together because, you know, yesterday it was quite late. So yeah. So if you are, you are anybody like a shop owner or somebody that owns like a small, I don't know, like a restaurant that has to close during this time, like what do you guys do? Like with your extra food? Yeah. Like I was like, oh, we should like go and buy food from them to yesterday. You know, just kind of all happened so fast. We had go to YouTube news. Are you saying because then I can watch the live there? I don't know. I'm afraid to mess it up. From the smallest country in the world. What's the smallest country in the world? Yeah. I don't know. I'm interested to see what she has to say. So were you able to hear it when I had turned it on a minute ago? Yeah, it's true. They will have 20 minutes of nothing. Okay. So can you hear this? Can you hear that? I'll turn it down. Here we go. Because I got to be able to hear what she's saying, but I think they can probably hear that since it's all the same speaker. Oh, stay safe if you're in the core of Mandel. Oh, that's cool. Domino's is filling the community pantry with their extra food. That's great. That's great. You know, because I don't know how like it affects people's jobs. And yeah, people are excited about lockdown. Yes. Lockdown is fun. So anyway, let's talk about stuff while we wait. Have you guys tried my American recipe book? Hello. I made it for you guys. So if you're in New Zealand, Australia, I made a recipe book of everybody's recommended favorite recipes that they wanted me to show them how to make. And I've adjusted it to America or excuse me, Australia, New Zealand temperatures and ways and ingredients because you kind of have to adapt a little bit to make it taste right. And so if you're interested in that, it's on my website kiwiamericans.com. Just click the shop button. That's right at the top. And so that's really cool. So check that. It's only $8. It's an ebook. It's you're getting quite a bit for $8, if you ask me. And all of the reviews that I've gotten from people have been like, we love this. This is amazing. But a lot of them are too shy to post a picture for me. Yeah, it's a good time to start cooking. You're in lockdown. You have all the time in the world. So okay, is this live happening? Okay. Puppy Chow. Oh my gosh. Puppy Chow. I should. So basically what happened is I got so many requests for recipes. I could not put all of them in there. But I think I have enough for like, if I, if you guys like this book that sells well for me, I will put the effort in to do another one and it'll be like baking because I have so much baking because there's so much that I didn't realize that you guys don't make here. Like angel food cake and like a lot of peanut butter type recipes, peanut butter balls and scotcheroos and maybe I'll share. I put in one of my grandmother's recipes that are amazing in that recipe book that you have. So some of the recipes that are in there, Chicago style deep dish pizza, and I have figured out how to taste, it tastes right and it tastes amazing. So check that one out. A real Philly cheesesteak like they have at Pat Steakhouse in Philadelphia. Gosh, a real American cheeseburger, right? Like this is how you should make it because they don't make it the way that you should that you would in the, let's see, you know, real soft chocolate chip cookies, you know, sloppy Joe's some Mexican food. Yeah, so check it out. So kiwiamericans.com and shop for that if you want that. No big deal. If you're not a cook, I'm just saying it's there if you want it. And if you are a small business, I am about to come out with a small a free small business TikTok class to help you guys get up on TikTok because you are missing out if you are not on TikTok. So that's a little heads up. I haven't actually got that formally advertised but coming up. Gosh, what else? Okay, I am going to upload my YouTube video for this week early. It will be Friday. And it's a Tara Christie one. And it's good. It's a bit long. So bear with me. But we actually talk about like, I should have probably broke it up into multiple videos, but we talked about different like what it's like working in Wisconsin right now because interesting because they're giving away free money. So people aren't working in Wisconsin. And so people are offering a mate like $1,000 bonuses to get a job at Taco Bell because they can't find enough employees are starting to have to shut down various parts of their business. It's very interesting. So that will actually be airing at seven o'clock on Friday this Friday. I'm just going to do it earlier because I'm done with it and that and then in September, we're coming out with the Tara Christie show. So make sure that you message me your ideas on topics you'd want us to do. I have lots of ideas, but I would like to know. You want butterfingers? You have to go to the American shop, the USTU in Wellington or the Martha's Pantry. Both of them are online. So you can see if they have it. And actually, USTU has a cool feature ring saying, let me know when you have it available and I'll let you know. So okay, so yeah, restaurant jobs. Nobody wants to work. So there's people in the US that are saying that it's very interesting. And so we kind of talk through all those issues and like what people are dealing with. Like it's crazy. Like even a lot of small businesses have to shut down because they can't find workers and you know, because basically what's happening is like there's always like the welfare option and it's different by state. So you can't talk in general. But like, they give you money, but now they're giving you money on top of that. And they're not requiring you to show that you're applying for work or that you've been to X amount interviews this week. So it's basically free money. And at summertime in Wisconsin, so people are like, I'm just going to enjoy the summer. I'm not going to work. Meanwhile, all these businesses are just, yeah, so interesting what we think about that. I didn't want to get a million messages last night because of level four. Yes. Oh my gosh. Okay, Culver's offered a $1,500 signing bonus. Are you kidding me? So Culver's would be like an upscale if you don't know if you're in New Zealand or Australia, an upscale fast food restaurant. And $1,500. It's like my teenagers would love to be working there, especially for $1,500 US dollar. So, man, it's like you want to get the economy running, but like, can't get anybody to work. Okay, sorry. Wouldn't want to work at Culver's? Why wouldn't you want to work at Culver's? Seems like a nice place. I don't know. Yeah, so is it just restaurant industry where people aren't willing to work? I mean, it seems like that's the case, but that makes sense. So yeah. So yeah, so send me like what topics you want me and Chrissy to talk about because we're excited about this show for you. So yeah, so I've also heard, so I did a lot of reading on it and so this is just my reading. This isn't like first hand experience. Obviously I'm not in the US, but people that like work for tips or like bartenders, a lot of them are moving to like working at QuickTrip, which is like, again, a petrol station for all of you who don't know, because they're getting paid a lot more per hour. And it's just like guaranteed. It's not like they like the job, but it's different. Oh, they're live. Okay. Oh, that's weird. Thank you. Thank you for saying that because on my screen, it doesn't look live. I will have to refresh. And it's what we have learned overnight and this morning about the current outbreak in any new cases or locations. Can you hear it? The third is the all around mask wearing. And finally, we'll finish up with an update on when we'll be restarting vaccination. Don't shoot. Firstly, you'll all know how important it is to try as much as possible to confirm where an outbreak actually started. One of the reasons we are all in lockdown and not just Auckland or the Coromandel, those places of interest is because we haven't yet answered that question of where it started overnight. We undertook what is called genome sequencing of the positive case we have. The reason that's important is because every case we have that comes through our managed isolation facilities, we put through that same process, which means that if we have a case in the community, we can potentially use genome sequencing to match it and hopefully find the chain. The results that have come back from our case yesterday tell us two things. First, that we are dealing with the Delta variant. The second thing it tells us is that it has linked the current genome sequencing of cases in the New South Wales outbreak. Our case has originated in Australia. Really? And now the job we have is to work hard and when it got here. The natural place to start is to look at our managed isolation facilities. We have had three positive cases from Sydney in our managed isolation facilities since 1 July. One detected on the 9th of August on their day one test and two on the 14th of August on their day three test. Positive cases from our managed isolation facilities are, as a matter of course, batched and then we genome sequenced them weekly. So these cases are currently being genome sequenced as we speak and we expect the results later tonight to tell us if they are a match or not a match. I can confirm that for every other case we have had at the border, which is sequenced already, there are no matches to this case. We have also started other lines of inquiry. What does that mean? We closed the border to a strain on the 23rd of July. Every passenger had requirements on them before they entered New Zealand in the one-week window we gave New Zealanders to return. As you remember, New South Wales had to stay put until we could bring people into our managed isolation facilities. Previous from Victoria had had two tests, one before they departed and one after three days in isolation when they returned. I can report that everyone was compliant with those requirements. Everyone else from other parts of Australia, they had had immediate tests. So if you are not in New Zealand, this is how we get updates on COVID. 1pm every day from the Prime Minister. This is why we're watching. In preparation to contact them again, should we find that this case is not linked to the current cases that we have in our managed isolation facilities? That of course is on top of the normal contact tracing we undertake around our cases. Can of course confirm that, for instance, a family member of current cases will be tested, including any who indicate that they have travelled to Australia. If someone swims. As you can hear, there is more work to be done to help piece together this puzzle. Our hope is we will have more information to share when we report back tomorrow. As you can hear already, we have really important information and our ability to narrow down that this is a case that is linked to the New South Wales outbreak, gives us a lot of leads to chase down as quickly as we can. I'll now hand over to Dr Bloomfield for an update. So I don't think we're going to get a change in days today. Further to the five cases reported earlier today, there are now a further two cases of COVID-19 to report in the community. Our total is now being seven cases. All of them are in the process of being transferred safely to the Auckland Quarantine Facility under strict intervention procedures. I just want to fix that little fly-by in the back. Separately, in our managed isolation facility, there are a further three cases to report today and the details of them will be in today's statement from the Ministry. Turning further to now to the community cases, our first case, we will call case A that was announced yesterday. The other four cases announced earlier today include a woog colleague of our original case. That's a 20-year-old male. There are three flatmates of that case. A 21-year-old female who is a fully vaccinated health professional that works at Auckland City Hospital and has been working in recent days. And as you'll be aware, there are measures underway to respond to that. There is a 25-year-old female teacher from an Auckland high school that is Avondale College and that college has been contacted and the community will be receiving specific information. Yeah, I don't think we're going to get actual updates on the three days or the seven days. What do you think? In contact with that person. And the other flatmate is a 29-year-old male. You've got to feel bad for him. There are three cases that just announce a 21-year-old female and a 19-year-old male, both of whom live in Auckland and both who are linked to the current cases as friends. Oh no, we were right next door to that college? So in total we have these seven cases that are all linked. We are of course, as I mentioned, concerned about the health care worker who all went for shifts while unknowingly in-care work direction. Auckland City Hospital was on to this last evening and took immediate actions in response. Not high school students. Not necessarily movement of start between wards, extensive testing of staff and of patients on the ward where this person worked, and of course, preventing staff members who worked the same shift from coming into work and they are isolating and being tested. The wife of our original case as reported yesterday and who is fully vaccinated has returned a seat. Oh, Alberta, Canada 500 cases daily. On contact tracing, our public health teams around the country are supporting rapid interview of cases, identifying close contacts, tracing those contacts to ensure they are in isolation and getting tested. Isolation when an alert level 4 means isolating, separately from other household members. So they have been supported to do that. As at 11am, Auckland Regional Public Health, our arts service, has identified 16 close contacts. 14 of them have already been contacted, and the other two are being tracked down. Just talking to the clinical director of the public health unit in the last hour or so. Yeah, that's true, Sheldon. Those who have been contacted are easily contactable. How in advance can you book the MIQs? I'm not sure. I haven't tried. Those who have been contacted are isolating and testing being arranged at the appropriate time. Four of those contacts, it is known are fully vaccinated. Three have had one dose of the vaccine. So people that are fully vaccinated, like the health care worker, can still spread it. Oh, hi, welcome. Thank you for watching. We're all watching on the live on PM COVID update. Ash, the group is talking. Yeah, I bet it was a ride. On locations of interest, as I said, most of the cases identified so far up in their 20s have been asked about LOG, and I'm flagging that there will be large numbers on the locations of interest. Sorry. It is very important that everybody keeps an eye on these. We endeavor always to notify locations of interest and premises ahead of making these this information public. However, speed is on the essence, and we may not always be able to do that. There are two locations of interest. I don't have the details. Did you guys catch what this was going to say in the beginning? I caught point three, and I just come to a big bank, very things. Yeah, you get that all the time. Sorry. I love the show, by the way, and Sheldon was the highlight. Please look out for the time that you may have been there if you've been at that location. And the other is the Sky City Casino. I understand that was Saturday evening. I'm glad I could help you with your home sickness. Again, if you were in that, either of those locations. It is really great here, but we're trapped here right now. To regularly check the locations of interest, it will be updated. There's more information comes to hand. Healthline is, again, plain and major. Healthline is available. This work force has many people on duty with and as anticipated a big increase. Have you guys had to call the Healthline? I had to call the Healthline. I started getting sick, and I was like, oh, should I call the Healthline? So I did, but she kind of laughed at me like, you don't have anything, you're fine. Okay, just wanted to do my job. To get tested on the Healthline website. In New Zealand, like, you can leave New Zealand, but you can't get back in. In terms of testing centres in Auckland, so that's the truth. That's the truth. Okay, Graham, what do you think the real truth is? To those centres, there is past repair in place with some management of provision of water and something. Hi, Caitlin. Hi, nearby testing centres that are not quite so busy. So that's been actively managed. Testing is underway in Thames and Coromandel towns, and that includes two pop-up testing types and additional. Yeah, like, we haven't been in level four for over a year. So like, it's been a long time. Right around the more to are ensuring that there is good access to testing over these coming days, which will be important. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Any other changes? Can I reiterate, it's important that the right people access testing at this point in the outbreak, that is, anyone who's symptomatic or has been at a lot of interest. There we are. Otherwise, the most important thing you can do is stay at home in your bubble. Just on wastewater testing, the most recent results of wastewater testing samples taken at Rosedale on Auckland's North Auckland. Waste water testing. And we will provide an update when they come to the group. There is daily testing now being taken from that site and sites across Auckland. Did I realise this? Composite sampling of Fitianga and Coromandel town has been set up today with further samples and Coromandel at Pawanui, Tairua and Whangamata, and the sampling of Thames gets underway tomorrow as well. The first results of that sampling will be due through on Friday. Oh, yeah, maybe that's a waterborne. That's a good question. I don't know. Two other comments, quickly, just in order that if you need acute medical care, you seek that. Hospitals are open. If it's an emergency, dial 111 or go straight to the emergency department. Hi, Oklahoma. Thanks for reaching out. Thank you for watching. That's so nice. Everybody's so nice. Working, and so you should seek advice from them. Seek advice. We are, for those of you that don't know, we're watching the Prime Minister's live COVID update every day of 1 p.m. This is what happens in New Zealand if you don't live here. So we're hearing the health, what has actually been built to help person, director, or something? Oh, interesting. I don't know. About the wastewater. Read the comments if you want to know. Can you guys see all that? Yeah, you can see the comments. As you can hear, we have a number of minor scabies for really as part of this outbreak, including a school, a senior medical facility. That is why following the rules for level four is just so important. So far, as you will have heard from Dr. Bloomfield, our contact traces are reporting that when they are calling people. Can you guys here to sit there talking? They are at home. I need everyone to think about what it would be like to receive that call. If you do, we need you to be at home, not outputting others at risk. Stay home, people. We need only to look at New South Wales, who today have reported 633 cases. 92 were active in the community. Level four restrictions are there to protect everyone to make this lockdown as short as possible. For our essential workers, it is really critical that if you are sick, you stay home and that you get a test. And we will be making sure that we highlight this message to your employers also so they can support you to do just that. So let me come then to decisions that have been made to provide extra protection for those who are working during level four. Early this week, Cabinet had made decisions on mask use. Ministers with Powder Acts met again this morning to confirm those decisions and ensure they had the coverage we would expect. From a given 50 p.m. tonight, it will be mandatory for everyone aged 12 and over to wear a mask when they are visiting any of their essential services that are currently open, including supermarkets, pharmacies and service stations. You will also be a requirement for staff who work in those places to wear a mask also. This is about ensuring that... I was like the only one wearing a mask good story yesterday. Just because it's not too limited doesn't mean you shouldn't. You will be a requirement to wear a mask on public transport and planes and that will replace bus terminals and also taxis. Simply put, at level four if you're in a place that is allowed to be open to provide services to people. Wear a mask, it seems obvious. You must wear a mask. That then brings me to the next area I wanted to cover in the briefing today, that is vaccinations. There's some good news. The right spot 55,688 doses were given out yesterday, a new daily record for our vaccination program. You'll know though that yesterday we caused vaccination. That was to allow DHBs to implement their contingency plans for level four. All day it's DHBs had plans in place to continue vaccination rollout during alert level four. Those are now being activated. Some vaccination and limited sites will restart this afternoon. The most important message is that from 8am tomorrow the vaccination program will resume throughout. 8am tomorrow. This will look a bit different though. Vaccination sites will be operating under a limited time condition and that means in some cases they won't necessarily have as many people coming through as they make it prior. That is to enable social distancing and safety. If you're one of the bookings that we need to move to ensure that we have a bit more space you will receive notification. Otherwise the message is simple. If you're booked for a vaccine tomorrow or the next day or the next day we haven't heard anything. Please go. As you can hear for the most part we're intending to continue our rollout as planned. That means continuing to open up age fans for bookings. So from today as we had previously planned those aged 40 plus can visit bookmyvaccine.co.nz to make their bookings. And if you're in that group I encourage you to do so. Book my vaccine. Do it. Finally one of the questions I've been asked in recent times do vaccines make a difference? Here we go selling point. An enormous one. So put it bluntly if you had the vaccine you are less likely to catch COVID-19 and much less likely to get sick or die if you do. Malcolm you do have to talk to people like their children because the average person is not real bright. But a few people do still get infected. We call those breakthrough infections. People with breakthrough infections can transmit the virus. That's why we do still ask everyone to be cautious no matter what your vaccine status is. To conclude a reminder that we are asking people who might not have been at home when lockdown began to move to the place where they will be for the remainder of lockdown as soon as possible. If you have flights booked for today and tomorrow that you're no longer able to use please cancel them. We've had reports from New Zealand of high numbers of no shows for flights which is understandable. Some of those bookings will be perhaps for holidays people won't be able to take or for work that they can't undertake. But by canceling them you enable someone who may need to get home to take that seat. Otherwise I'll finish where I started. Thank you. When I asked Commissioner Costa on our call this morning how it was looking at terms of people doing the right thing the response was pretty good. Commissioner Costa will be coming to New Zealand shortly. But if we turn pretty good into great that we'll end this outbreak more quickly. I know Delta is making people feel anxious and more afraid. I know when they tell you now to do something you make sure you want to do it. But we can get on top of this just like we have. Okay so no update of the three days. We're now happy to take your question. Can we anticipate any further high risk? No because I haven't received any modeling at this time. But usually there are those who once we are a little further along in outbreaks generally do start producing some estimate. Joshua are you talking to me? Do you think I was the pram queen? Absolutely and anticipating. You talk about Jacinda. But it's our contact tracing. I'm assuming not. Today they see. Okay well some of the first couple questions. We're going into level four. It makes their jaw that much easier. It means we're in a much less risky position as we identify high risk again. Just two comments there. As I pointed out the big most of the cases already. Thanks Michael. Okay so I'm going to pause this. Anyway what do you guys think? What's our reaction? What are our thoughts? Are we okay with this? I guess what choice? Oh man I'm going to go to a work meeting at two. Is it already 1.30? Anyway yeah the first couple questions are generally pretty good. Yeah you're honestly fine. I'm honestly fine. I like the extra time. I like being stuck together. I still like people in my family. Maybe different after three days but gamers are isolating anyway. Yes I'm sure all my kids would like to just play games all day. Trying to get them to do stuff since schools aren't really having them do anything today. But yeah so anyway it was fun to be honest with you guys and watching it live. Maybe we should do this every day. Maybe we'll do it like you know on days that we think it'll be a big deal. But anyway I don't want to keep you if you want to watch the questions. So just to reiterate my YouTube videos are going to come out early this week on Friday just because I haven't done. I think seven o'clock on Friday. Check out my new American recipe book kiwiamericans.com. Click shop. It's eight dollars. It's an e-book and it's everything's been adjusted for New Zealand, Australia ingredients and temperatures and that sort of thing. And it's really cool. I like it and I've gotten really great feedback. People really like it so the great time during lockdown to try a new recipe. Yes as long as you have the ingredients I guess. So check that out and yeah so message me also what you think should be some fun topics to do with Christy coming up and I will be on live again because this was great.
