Aroha mai, aroha atu whanau. As the Auckland region goes into lockdown, we have a few simple requests.
1️⃣ COVID-19 is no excuse for racism or discrimination.
2️⃣ Be kind and look out for others. Not everyone will understand the rules.
3️⃣ There is no blame or shame in having Covid-19. Remember that the virus is the problem, not people.
4️⃣ Wash your hands, cough or sneeze into your elbow, and stay home if you're sick. Follow regional Alert level guidance.
5️⃣ If your job is affected financial support may be available to you such as the COVID-19 Leave Support Scheme.
6️⃣ Avoid panic buying from supermarkets.
7️⃣ If you're worried about someone in the community please don't ignore your concerns. Contact the Police if you think a welfare or emergency check is needed.
