Missed GP visits put tamariki in hospital

Missed GP visits put tamariki in hospital 28 Jun 2021 12:15 PM More Related Stories Related Podcast Māori and Pacific children face more barriers to seeing a GP than other children and those who do are twice as likely to be hospitalised. That’s the finding of a Te Herenga Waka - Victoria University of Wellington study using data from the long-running Growing Up in New Zealand study. It found 8.3 percent of Māori children and 7 percent of Pacific children experienced barriers to seeing a GP between the ages of 12 and 24 months, compared with 2.8 percent of Pākehā children. Lead author Dr Mona Jeffreys says children who don’t see a GP at that early age are more than twice as likely to be admitted to hospital when they are about the age of 4.

First NZ study to diagnostically validate COVID-19 saliva testing

Share Scientists at Te Herenga Waka Victoria University of Wellington have used real-world samples to confirm the 98.7 percent accuracy of a saliva test for COVID-19. This is the first, and currently the only, COVID-19 saliva test to be diagnostically validated in Aotearoa New Zealand. Associate Professor Janet Pitman from the University’s Te Kura Mātauranga Koiora School of Biological Sciences led the study. “Despite a view that saliva tests aren’t as accurate as the standard nasopharyngeal test, our research shows this one is,” she says. A paper describing the study has been prepared and submitted for publication in a medical journal.
