NZ right now is next to Jurassic Park mid-rampage, behind a chickenwire fence and a sternly-worded sign. “Anti-dino spray? No need,” we say as we lounge on our deck chairs, “those dinosaurs will never rampage here, they wouldn’t ignore our sign.” https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/coronavirus/122337409/coronavirus-nz-could-end-up-like-melbourne-experts-warn?cid=app-iPad
NZ is thoroughly preoccupied with the election but we really need to shift into disaster preparedness mode. There has never before been such a clearly delineated disaster looming over us. Somehow need to shift the comms on this, and soon.
And this sort of nonsense is not helping https://twitter.com/clintvsmith/status/1290735250151104513?s=21
(To be clear, the nonsense is Judith Collins turning COVD response into a political football, not Clint calling her out for it!)
This nonsense is actively harmful. https://twitter.com/kiwi_things/status/1290730694411345920?s=21 https://twitter.com/kiwi_things/status/1290730694411345920
Now this is *exactly* what we need. I tweeted a day too early.

Whereas this is more highly irresponsible and dangerous messaging from someone given a huge platform to bloviate https://twitter.com/nzherald/status/1291251783327612929?s=21 https://twitter.com/nzherald/status/1291251783327612929
This is exactly what we need! Media stories like this are a great way to normalise masks. https://twitter.com/rnz_news/status/1291468814937333760?s=21 https://twitter.com/rnz_news/status/1291468814937333760
Irresponsible. “Just asking questions” is dog whistle BS. https://twitter.com/nzmorningreport/status/1291520150152179712?s=21
Now here’s @NZStuff covering just how ready we are as a community. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/coronavirus/122364700/coronavirus-complacency-how-prepared-are-kiwis-for-more-community-transmission?cid=app-iPad
Only 1 in 10 people using the COVID app? Hey, you reading this: I’m asking you to be *diligent* and *obvious* about signing in.
The biggest influence on whether people do a thing is *seeing other people do the thing*. Let them see you.

The dinosaurs are loose. Official guidelines: wear a mask if you can. Same logic as the app - we have to shift the social norm on this, so people need to see other people wearing a mask.

Hey, you reading this - wear a mask in public tomorrow. Even if you’re the only one doing it.

“Experts ay wear masks” has zero persuasion value. They have to see neighbours and friends wearing masks. https://www.stuff.co.nz/national/health/300079904/coronavirus-aucklanders-should-be-wearing-masks-experts-say?cid=app-iPad
Practical thing we can do here and on FB and Insta: share a selfie wearing a mask. Change your profile, even. Shift that norm!
Get that app going! #MaskUpNZ
But we gotta USE IT. So make sure you do when you’re out and about. It’s what @FoxyLustyGrover would want!

Hmm remember this from upthread? A week ago.
Duncan and Mark’s reckons have not aged well.

WILDLY irresponsible messaging from the deputy leader of the opposition. Outrageous. If we had anything approaching a responsible commentariat Brownlee would be incinerated for this conspiracy-stoking. https://twitter.com/justin_hu_/status/1293390630945615873
