The Wire with Zazi and Frances: September 22, 2021

This week on the wire Frances began with her regular segment Dear Science with AUT Professor Marcus Jones where they talked about the future for zero-COVID countries, amateur astronauts in space and anti aging clues found in protein synthesis. Zazi then spoke with Doctoral Researcher at the University of Oxford, England, Paula Larsson, about her article “The inherent racism of anti-vaxx movements.” This was followed by a piece from Frances talking to Emma Bugden, Whanganui and Partners Strategic Lead for the Creative Industries and Art, about the new Whanganui Film Office. And finally Zazi had her regular talk with the ACT Party’s Brooke van Velden, talking about Auckland moving to Alert Level 3 and Climate Change Minister James Shaw going to COP 26 - the 2021 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, Scotland.
