We found that older people living in our communities in New Zealand who are at risk of frailty are likely to have diets of moderately high variety and adequacy but poor moderation and balance. buff.ly/3ksZPyd #dietquality #frailty #NewZealand

Some people with underlying medical conditions or those 70 and older are more at risk of severe illness from COVID-19.
These people may need to take extra precautions like only reconnecting with close family.

Today there are zero new cases of COVID-19. A probable case recorded earlier is now a confirmed case.
Thank you NZ, we should be proud of what we've achieved. It’s a significant milestone, but we're not there yet, let’s not risk the gains we’ve made.
We've got this.💛
