Grant, she has be misquoting from the Literature Review for the common practice model (not even the common practice model itself), and presenting that misquote as from the maths strategy (it isn't)

see page 39 of the document subtitled "a review of the literature" www.nzcer.org.nz/sites/defaul...

Over here it looks like influenza is also historically high (at least in the Auckland based hospital admissions). And a lot of A/H3 is nationwide in the community, but not detected in SARI Auckland hospitalisations as much.

It really needs to get to under $100 to be competitive with air (100 is a bit more, but you finish the trip in the middle of town, and we all know about the last 30 km). That is still a lot more than a bus, but I think air is the first comparative to make.

It feels a bit like, "since there is money at stake we will do some very basic sense checking of the data for physical impossibilities. Oh, wait"

I have been going around correcting myself, that it is the lit review for the Common Practice Model document, which is a completely seperate document to the Strategy, so even that aspect was wrong.

Yes, yes I agree it does seem very misleading to say Source: Strategy when the source is not the strategy and and it both selectively and misquotedly draws from the document that is the actual source.

Just to correct myself, it is not even the lit review for the strategy. It is the lit review for the Common Practice Model document, which is a completely seperate document to the Strategy, so even that aspect was wrong.
