We cross live to Health Minister Chris Hipkins for the very latest on our Covid-19 second-wave. Opposition leader Judith Collins with her reaction to the new plan, thoughts on her party’s conduct this week - and the election date debate. Plus what does the second wave mean for our financial survival? We speak to economist Brad Olsen and a devastated business owner. Scientist Dr Jemma Geoghegan on the genome project that could unlock the mystery behind our latest cluster And epidemiologist, Professor David Murdoch on the likelihood of undiscovered community transmission - and whether elimination remains a realistic goal. Plus, analysis as always from our political panel - this week, former Act Party Deputy Leader Heather Roy and former Labour Party President Mike Williams.
