Oh and yes we are required to wear respirators that you can't get right now because the government have taken all of 3M's supply. So fuck you again Ashley. Basically we are consulting by phone, and waiting to book like crazy when we hit L2

@canefan I had a minor surgical procedure last week in a specialists clinic. Was a bit surprised it went ahead although in theory a delay could have had serious consequences.
No nurse or receptionist etc but all he wore was a disposable mask.
I guess as you are digging around in the area that the virus is potentially emanating from it makes sense.

someone just told me high court judge.
not that exciting to be fair..
That's what Reddit says as well (well, judge, not specifically which court).

It’ll be a dark day for justice if those rich prats from Auckland who took advantage of their essential worker pass to fly to Wanaka get name suppression.

The more threats they receive the more likely they'll get it

From what I know it's not particularly interesting from a 'public personality' point of view (it's unlikely people will have heard of them), more just rich people disregarding the rules and taking a holiday during lockdown. It'll probably blow over in a few days once the next thing to be outraged about pops up.

The mother is the "high profile public official" according to the news.
They won't be welcome back to Wanaka in a hurry.
Neve flew to Wanaka by herself and hired a car? Kudos if so.
It's all over twitter. Son of judge and partner is a lawyer

I expect this will happen more and more in the coming days, and is likely happening more than is reported / caught
Was headlines in.our local paper about a couple that drove over farmland to get into Northland, another person who took police on a chase breaching the borders into Northland.
