@taniwharugby said in Coronavirus - New Zealand:
so 58 (48 confirmed, 10 probable) new cases today, but apparently this lower number likely due to the fact less tests done on Sunday (so 2 day lag in results now?)
2 in ICU, but stable, and the good bit is over 70 recovered.
The thing that annoys me in the total figure is that they include the recovered in that total.

The new cases climb due to more testing and some people becoming symptomatic. Obviously it is important but I'm more concerned about the numbers needing hospitalization or even worse ICU care

@canefan think it was 12 in hospital, which I assume includes the 2 in ICU.

Agree, at this stage who has it (or has had it) is mostly only important in terms of how many people will end up in hospital/ICU.
Later on, cases per day will matter because it will determine when lockdown ends.

Anyone else see they have added 7 days to the state of emergency. How fuc*ing long is this going to go for.
I don’t think that’s to do with the 4 week lock down period, more to do with their powers etc?

Another 3 weeks. The state of emergency only lasts for a week, and get renewed as required. So there will be another re-assess in a weeks time and (more than likely) another week of SoE

No time for this. These types should get the shit kicked out of them, and thrown in jail

@canefan A Newshub article about the same incident says that the offender could face a maximum of 14 years in jail, referring to this section of the Crimes Act, if one of the cops spat at tests positive as a result of the attack:
201 Infecting with disease
(1) Every one is liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 14 years who, wilfully and without lawful justification or excuse, causes or produces in any other person any disease or sickness.
Maybe there are special provisions in the Emergency legislation as well?

@canefan That really is disgusting behaviour.
There was a woman in Melbourne(?) that spat on a cop and they took her straight down to the pavement. That's the only way to deal with them. And it was screened on TV

That makes me happy. I hope she got hurt.

I don't care that she was wearing a hijab. Spit and get taken down like a dog

Not only in this time we are living in but any time! I think though, given the environment we are currently faced with and the service men and women protecting us, the pain should be more.

An updated graphic on the cases by age bracket. Those in their 20s are almost double the other age groups.
That bracket are the fuckers mainly responsible for spreading covid19, and the least likely to die from it
