How the Covid-19 pandemic has impacted cigarette smoking rates in the Bay 15 Mar, 2021 06:00 PM 4 minutes to read The number of people who smoke cigarettes in the Bay of Plenty is still decreasing but a doctor says the Covid-19 pandemic has acted as a handbrake. It comes after the revelation more than a quarter of the 500,000 Kiwis who smoke said their cigarette intake increased during alert level 4 last year. Tauranga s Fifth Avenue Family Practice had 1.2 per cent of the practice s entire clientele give up smoking in the year to March 2020, with 727 then-current smokers. In the 12 months since, the total number of smokers has dropped 719, a reduction of 0.3 per cent.

Why a doctor thinks influenza might never return as strong as it used to be

Why a doctor thinks influenza might never return as strong as it used to be 21 Feb, 2021 07:00 PM 4 minutes to read All the major coronavirus events of 2021. The potentially deadly influenza virus might never again have the same hold on New Zealand as it did before the Covid-19 pandemic, a Rotorua doctor says. Each year, before Covid-19, more than 200,000 Kiwis catch influenza - the flu - and an estimated 500 die from it. That s more than the annual road toll. However, 2020 was different, with flu rates deep-diving across New Zealand as a direct result of Covid-19 and the lockdown, experts say. Rotorua general practitioner Dr Cate Mills, from Three Lakes Clinic, suspects the flu will have a limited impact in the future.
