At the beginning of January, private health provider Manage My Health shared information about a data breach via a ransomware attack which impacted 125,000 patients, predominantly in Northland, where Health NZ uses Manage My Health to share information with patients.

Northland GPs and New Zealand health experts have called for better transparency around data security and awareness around the impact for patients.

Ocean temperature measurements are one of the most accurate measures of climate change, and have significant impacts on multiple ecological factors, including weather.

To discuss rising ocean temperatures and what they mean for the world, News Director Castor spoke to one of the authors on the paper discussing the findings, distinguished scholar at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colorado, and honorary faculty member at the Department of Physics at the University of Auckland, Kevin Trenberth, about rising ocean temperatures and the potential ramifications.
