New Zealand excess deaths have been running at unprecedented levels for well over a year, hospital admissions are also at record levels, and the health service is overwhelmed. The Wellington Region contains approximately 10% of New Zealand’s population. Presuming recent leaked hospital admission figures are accurate, they verify that the health of the population is getting progressively worse. The number of heart attacks has doubled. Hospitalisation for myocarditis is up by one third (33% increase). Miscarriage, stillbirths, and strokes all up by a quarter (25% increase). Acute kidney injury (AKI) up by 40%.
