Sir Ashley Bloomfield's ambitious plan for fixing health
from Paddy Gower’s TFN - The F#$%ing News · host Stuff Audio | Believer Media
The former Director-General of Health, Sir Ashley Bloomfield, had greatness thrust upon him during the pandemic, and because of what he did, he’s now not only a Sir, he’s also one of Paddy's 'Great Kiwis.' Today, he reveals his plan to fix health - and opens up about whether he would have done anything differently during Covid. Is 'This Is the Fucking News' offensive? The Intellectual Property Office of New Zealand think so, and Paddy's not happy about it. Adolescence, the current Netflix blockbuster has everyone talking. It is terrifyingly good and has ignited an important debate about social media and children’s access to smartphones. And this week's 'Brainy Kiwi' is Stefan Powell. He's the CEO of Ōtautahi-based Dawn Aerospace, which is doing incredible things with rockets. Or are they planes?
