An Auckland GP is concerned that the public is not taking covid-19 seriously enough. It's been more than 100 days since New Zealand's last community case of covid-19 and South Auckland doctor Sapna Samant says people are becoming too relaxed in their attitude toward the virus. Dr Samant told Nathan Rarere that she's seeing patients with obvious respiratory symptoms not be truthful when booking appointments and some are refusing covid-19 tests when they're offered them.
