The small community of Ngongotahā has spent the past week trialling the brand new Covid contact tracing card, and so far, so good, with some saying it's much better than the Covid tracer app.
"I do feel the card is a much better solution because you don't need an email
address," Ngongotahā resident Christina Harkness said.
"It can be for as many individuals, whoever participates, and it's just something that you wear. You don't even have to worry about it. It's just chuck it on and go about your normal day."
Following the trial, some wearers say they preferred the piece of hardware for its user-friendliness.
"Personally I prefer the card because you don't have to think about it as opposed to when you go into places you've got to remember," Ngongotahā resident Rachel Hansen said.
