Getting through our first weekend, on Alert Level 4, collectively, for the common good 🙂
Check out the Pacific Aiga Bubble and information from the link below on Coconet.TV - Dr Siautu Alefaio speaks about multi-generational family care - a lot of Pacific families have multiple-bubbles under one roof, so take time to think, talanoa and adjust to some of the ways we will be living 🙂

It's important to talk to everyone in your household about the importance of building your bubble 🙌
Your bubble is like a protective shield to keep you safe from contact with Covid-19.
Make sure you protect your bubble safe when you're at home and when you leave, should you need to. By practicing physical distancing from others outside your bubble, you can help reduce the risk of catching and spreading the virus. 👏

Tufuga Ta Tatau Workshop 2019
This video is a result of an inaugural Ta Tatau Health and Safety Workshop attended by Tufuga ta tatau from both Samoa and New Zealand, held in Auckland on 25th of June 2019. This video should be watched in conjunction with Le Va’s tatau factsheet. Whilst this factsheet focusses more on health and safety practice, cultural and spiritual processes associated with customary tattooing are captured in the video.

#LeadershipInAction 👏🏽 awesome @AshBloomfield @minhealthnz
In little over two months, Bloomfield has fronted at least 40 press conferences related to Covid-19.
And in each interview, he's devoid of panic, he answers calmly, he rarely refers to notes, he doesn't indulge jargon, and he often fronts on Saturdays. https://www.rnz.co.nz/news/national/412820/ashley-bloomfield-is-finally-having-a-day-off
Don't swim, don't surf, don't fish and don't go out on the boat. That's the clear message from water... authorities during the lockdown period. More: https://bit.ly/3dx4adM

💯our bubble protects just as our resilience protects us #Top5Tactics
@MarySoonaoso Pacific people dying by suicide may even decrease if in our aiga bubbles 💭 we enhance protective factors like these that @LeVaPasifika & Dr @jstiatia pulled together. No easy answer but I would say there is a lot of hope amongst the challenge. 2/2
