A Pandemic Pictorial
- 2 Jul 2009
- Capital & Coast District Health Board
- Winter’s always a busy period at any hospital, and June 2009 was especially busy with the arrival of the “Swine Flu” pandemic adding further stresses and strains. The arrival of “Novel A H1N1” (to give the swine flu its proper name) required all hospital staff to rapidly adapt to the changing environment. Otago University School of Medicine photographer Lousie Goossens spent some time looking at the various roles C&C DHB staff played during the early stages of the swine flu pandemic.

Just-in-case Tamiflu buyers turned away
- 30 Jun 2009
- Newswire.co.nz
- LARGE numbers of people turning up to Wellington pharmacies to buy Tamiflu are surprised when the answer is “No”. Contrary to most people’s expectation, pharmacists can’t sell the flu treatment to people seeking it as a preventative or to have on hand “just in case”. As confirmed cases of swine flu top 200 in Wellington this week, pharmacists are seeing steady streams of enquirers, mostly from travellers.
