There’s a very real effort to rewrite NZs early COVID experience. Let’s make sure the enquiry don’t just hear from those who’ve fallen for disinformation!

It’s worth taking some time to comment on what NZ did well & what could hv been done better which would also improve public health for all time (eg Clean air standards+investment in public spaces esp in education).
You can be sure the cookers will be out in force reinventing the covid narrative.

New Zealand’s new right-leaning coalition government is abandoning a world-leading plan to outlaw smoking for future generations, in a move health experts say is a retrograde step that will cost the country billions of dollars in health care.
Groundbreaking smoking ban abandoned in New Zealand’s swing to the right
The new government halted a plan to outlaw smoking, a move critics call “a huge win for the tobacco industry” and “an act of idiocy” for public health.
