Doctors are already exhaused with peak weeks away - a podcast by RNZ

An Auckland emergency doctor says her exhausted colleagues are expecting a busy couple of weeks even as hospital cases appear close to peaking.
Latest DHB figures show up to 40 percent of people at Middlemore's ED have the virus, with a quarter in Auckland City Hospital and a fifth at North Shore.
Elspeth Frascatore works in one of the city's EDs and represents the Association of Salaried Medical Specialists.
