Biography

Just so I NEVER forget.....

Covid-19 Pandemic

Prime Minister issued a Level 4 lockdown at 11:59pm on the 25th of March 2020. Border closed now, although it was open to returning kiwis only (for those who can get home.) AirNZ ended international flights 30th March. Community support groups established, to support the vulnerable, elderly, immunocompromised and people in enforced isolation due to exposure, in their community. Petrol price 5km from home was $1.91. Though not going anywhere. Schools closed. Remote learning in place. Social distancing 2m. Tape on the floors at grocery stores and others to help distance shoppers (2 mtrs) from each other. Limited number of people inside stores, therefore, lineups outside the store doors. Some areas have 30-45 minute wait to get in. Non-essential stores and businesses closed. People who can work from home. Parks, trails, gyms, cinemas, churches etc. are closed. Sports on hold. Motorsports racing in E-Series. Olympics postponed to 2021. Concerts, tours, festivals, entertainment events - cancelled. Weddings, family celebrations, holiday gatherings are not being held. Those whom pass away are buried without their loved ones. Services are taped and sent to families. No gatherings of 50 or more, then 20 or more, then 10 or more. Now, Don't socialize with anyone outside of your home bubble. Panic buying sets in and we have limits on toilet paper, disinfecting supplies, paper towels, staple foods, hand sanitizer. Flour is hard to get because the packaging comes from China and borders are closed. Manufacturers, distilleries and other businesses switch their lines to help make visors, masks, hand sanitizer and PPE. Fines are established for breaking lockdown rules.

Public Park areas turned into caravan parks for stranded tourists to self isolate. Press conferences daily from the PM and other government officials. Daily updates on new cases, recoveries, and deaths. Government incentives to stay home. Barely anyone on the roads. People wearing masks and gloves outside.

Monday 20 April 2020 Jacinda Arden Prime Minister announces we will go to level 3 at 11.59pm Monday 27 April 2020.

Through out the world: Shortage of PPE in some countries. Shortage of ventilators for the critically ill in many parts of the world. Refrigerated trucks for the dead outside hospitals in the USA, Italy, Spain, China, and more. Stadiums and recreation facilities overseas open up for the overflow of Covid-19 patients.

Novel Coronavirus (Covid-19) Pandemic, WHO declared March 11th, 2020.

Hello Sandra. I'm moved that you wrote a piece about History as it is today - The Coronavirus Pandemic.

Hi Sandra,

Thanks self-certifying for the Pre-1700 badge! Collaboration with Pre-1700 Project members is essential for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Collaboration is essential because those ancestors are usually shared by many descendants.

It looks like the England Project would be a good fit based on your branch of WikiTree. Review the project page to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Do you have any questions? Let me know. I'm happy to help! :-)

Welcome back and thanks for signing the Honor Code, Sandra! I hope you discover as much about your family as I have about mine over the last several years.

Check out the How-to pages for some quick tips on working with both the Wiki pages and our other members. There is some great information in those pages.

If you have questions about how WikiTree works, let me know and I will find answers. Just reply to this comment, or click my name, then ask in the comment section of my page, or send me a private message.

Wendy ~ WikiGreeter

P.S. If links do not work in an email from WikiTree, try them from the comment section on your profile page.

Hi ,

Now that you have had a little time to try WikiTree, there are a few more features you may find useful.

Ideas on what to include in a profile can be found in Styles and Standards, including some tips on writing biographies.

If you need to describe an event, an heirloom or a location relevant to your research, you may like to learn about Free Space Profiles.

Lastly, sometimes you'll run into unresponsive profile managers. We have a process for resolving those unfortunate situations.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask via my profile page. Michelle~ WikiTree Mentor

Thanks for volunteering; You are now a confirmed member of WikiTree!

If you have WikiTree-specific problems you can contact a Mentor? at the Mentors Project.

Take a look at our Question of the Week: What do you think it is, that keeps you hooked into this hobby / obsession?

Welcome Michael F. Harris, Volunteer Greeter

Welcome to the WikiTree family! The initial email from us has useful links that will get you started.

WikiTree is different because we have One Big Tree. Our goal is to have one profile per person, and that means we all work together as a single collaborative team. Our Honor Code is the key.

When you confirm your email address, you'll have an option to volunteer to add information to WikiTree, beginning with tags for your own profile. Tags are surnames, locations, concepts, etc. that you'd like to track.

If you decide to volunteer, a greeter will confirm your membership. After signing the Honor Code, you'll be able to add new profiles to the tree.

Carole

P.S. I'm always happy to answer questions.
