Ruapehu mayor Don Cameron says he understands the stress the Covid-19 pandemic is placing on some members of the community and is urging residents to follow Covid-19 guidelines as strictly as possible.
Cameron said the Council understood the stress Covid-19 was placing on some members of the Ruapehu community and
was feeling what they were going through.
"This is a stressful time for everyone, but especially so for those in high-risk categories, notably those over 70, have a compromised immune system or have underlying health conditions."
Cameron said that with the support from local government and other agencies, the Ruapehu District Council was committed to doing all it could to limit the impact of the pandemic on residents.
"Keep calm and keep yourself informed via the official government Covid-19 or mainstream news channels, and strictly follow the guidelines for keeping themselves and the community safe.
