First @NZMPA1 COMT done for the year! Was really nice to see some familiar faces from @OtagoCHARR @physiOtago up here in Auckland!!

Not a normal LockerRoom column for me - I’d much rather talk about someone else! But we need to talk about how wellbeing and high performance sport can co-exist positively❤️ newsroom.co.nz/when-i-was-too…

IT'S HAPPENED. 100,000 Kiwis have been vaccinated today, setting a new record for the most vaccines given in a single day. Ka pai Aotearoa, but it's not over yet! If you haven't already, look at getting vaccinated as part of Super Saturday. 👉 1news.co.nz/2021/10/15/liv…

A rare tweet from me but #SuperSaturday is a huge deal. Get vaccinated tomorrow or, if you already have been, encourage whanau or friends to. Shot Aotearoa.

Just watched a young Maori girl say that the PM asked her if she had her jab. No was the answer. Scared of needles. The girl asked her if she'd sit in the car with her while she got it. Now she's had her first vaccinated. Jacinda kept her occupied.

Saturday October 16th is National Vaccination day! Let's get out there together fam!! Leave no one behind 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾

Taking the vaccine does not diminish your sovereignty or mana motuhake. It only enhances and protects the very essence of what these principles for.

We are seeing this happen more frequently, mental health and suicide being dragged into political conversations about lockdown. It is not okay, especially when the evidence does not support it. We encourage audiences to approach these discussions with scepticism.

After 3 bottles of glue, 4 rolls of double-sided tape, and a whole lot of MIQ food packaging from 11 days in quarantine, I HAVE FINISHED!!! Here is my Sky Tower made from stuff that would’ve otherwise ended up in the bin. #MIQ #BoredomBuster #SkyTower #Quarantine

How our Female Rowers Ate More and Triumphed | Newsroom. “……we want to be good role models when it comes to female health. To show girls at high schools that you can row and be healthy.” Strong message from Jackie Kiddle #rolemodel newsroom.co.nz/lockerroom/how…

After weeks of cpap and now HFNO treatments I’m so proud to see our patients working out! With severe muscle wasting from critical illness, our steroids and reduced eating- its so crucial to rehab even before walking!! Big-up also to physio Bec and all staff exercising in PPE!
