Evidence (2021-03-05): The earthquakes triggered warning systems and caused traffic jams and some chaos in New Zealand as people scrambled to get to higher ground. Residents recorded videos of small wave surges in some places, including at Tokomaru Bay near Gisborne. In the afternoon, the National Emergency Management Agency said the threat had passed and people could return to their homes, although they should continue avoiding beaches [...] It was widely felt in New Zealand, and residents in the major cities of Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch reported being shaken awake.

Evidence (2023-03-21): A set of social media posts (here, here & here) claiming to show visuals of recent earthquake which struck New Zealand are being widely circulated. Through this article, let’s fact-check the veracity of these visuals. [...] Fact: None of these visuals are related to the recent earthquake that struck New Zealand. While some of the visuals are related to the recent Turkey earthquake, most of the visuals are related to old incidents of earthquakes that occurred else where. Hence the claim made in the post is FALSE. [...] In light of this earthquake, multiple visuals are being shared on social media attributing them to the recent earthquake. However, these visuals are not related to the New Zealand earthquake.

Evidence (2016-12-11): On 14 November 2016 at just after midnight local time a major earthquake struck in the North Canterbury region of New Zealand. This isn’t surprising as the country sits on the boundary of the Australian and Pacific tectonic plates, part of the Earth’s crust, and it has a long history of earthquake activity. Some of the impacts of this 7.8 magnitude quake make amazing reading. Scientists have estimated that the two biggest land masses of New Zealand, the North and South Islands moved closer together by 2 metres! Around the other side of the world the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) picked up the earthquake waves as they distorted the 27km in circumference particle accelerator ring by 0.1mm: [...] Fortunately the 7.8 earthquake happened in sparsely-populated area and at a time when most people were at home so there were only 2 deaths and a small number of injuries. Here is a map from SAS VA that shows the area. This was very quick and easy to do. I loaded the earthquake dataset into the VA LASR library. I then used the earthquake ID to define a custom geographic location using latitude and longitude. I then created a Geo Bubble Map report and defined the size of the dot to show the earthquake magnitude and the colour to show the depth. This screenshot really doesn't do justice to the amazing level of detail. I've also only shown the magnitude 5 or higher quakes otherwise the map would just be obliterated with dots.

Evidence (2023-08-28): Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ) experiences over 20,000 earthquakes a year, with an average of 360 earthquakes between M4.0 to 4.9 and 30 between M5.0 and 5.9 (GeoNet, 2022). Several damaging earthquakes have occurred recently, including the Canterbury Earthquake Sequence (CES) with large events in 2010 and 2011 and the 2016 Kaikōura earthquake. With the exception of the 2011 Christchurch event, earthquakes in NZ tend to cause few fatalities. However, around 15,000 people were injured in earthquakes in the short timeframe between 2010 and 2014 (Basharati et al., 2020). Many of the injuries seen in NZ could be prevented by people undertaking appropriate protective actions (Horspool et al., 2020) such as "Drop, cover, and hold" (DCH), which is taught in the annual ShakeOut earthquake drill. Although people who participate in this drill are more likely to know and use DCH (Vinnell et al., 2020), use of these actions is still relatively low (e.g., Johnston et al., 2014; Lambie et al., 2017; Vinnell et al., 2022b), an issue not just in NZ (Bernardini et al., 2019).

Evidence (2017-05-02): The 14 November 2016 M=7.8 New Zealand earthquake caused significant damage, and left many people isolated. The earthquake ruptured at least 6 faults, over a 120 km long stretch on New Zealand’s South Island. Immediately following the quake, we posted a blog about the science behind it. Now, we wanted to highlight the significant effects the earthquake has had on the resilient people of New Zealand. Initial reports suggest that over 100,000 landslides were caused by the earthquake. While a lot of these took place inland and had little effect on people, many have blocked State Highway 1, which snakes its way up the east coast of the South Island. These landslides isolated the town Kaikoura, forcing people to be evacuated by air and sea. In addition to landslides, fault rupture and surface cracks caused extreme damage throughout the country.

Evidence (2016-12-03): On November 13, 2016, a powerful earthquake jolted the northeastern coast of New Zealand’s South Island. The 7.8 magnitude quake lifted the seabed by 0.5 to 2 meters (2 to 7 feet) along a 20-kilometer stretch of the Kaikoura coast. In one area, the uplift was a remarkable 5.5 meters (18 feet). The sudden shifting of such a huge quantity of rock produced some unusual sights. From above, satellites captured an image of a thin swath of newly exposed land ringing the Kaikoura Peninsula and other parts of South Island. [...] People living near the Kaikoura coast were struck by the sounds that accompanied the quake as well as the sights. "Locals here described not the earthquake noise but the noise of water running off the top of this uplifted platform," said geologist Kelvin Berryman in a GNS Science video. "They said that the noise was just horrendous."

Evidence (2024-01-31): Global spending on health: Coping with the pandemic The report shows that global spending on health continued to increase in 2021, the second year of the pandemic, to US$ 9.8 trillion (10.3% of global GDP). The increase in spending was driven by higher government spending and out-of-pocket spending. In low income countries, external aid for health played an important role in supporting government spending. Sustaining government spending and external aid at 2021 levels could, however, prove challenging given the deterioration in global economic conditions, rising inflation and increased debt servicing obligations. The report also capitalizes on disaggregated spending information to provide new insights into the dynamics of increased global spending on health through the pandemic. Using data disaggregated by health service providers it shows some of the ways that health service delivery systems coped with the COVID-19 pandemic. Hospitals, ambulatory care providers, and pharmacies accounted for most health spending. Shifts were observed, however, in the composition of services within provider types, reflecting the new and evolving demands through the pandemic. Disaggregated spending data by disease and condition also shows a delicate balance between spending on COVID-19 and other diseases was maintained. The report also examines countries’ health capital investment, which shape current operational capacity and are essential for forging a path toward effective and resilient health systems.

Evidence (2024-02-29): Looking at a more detailed breakdown for the EU in 2022, 'hospital services' accounted for 3.2 % of GDP, 'outpatient services' for 2.3 % of GDP, 'medical products, appliances and equipment' for 1.1 % of GDP and 'public health services' for 0.5 % of GDP. 'Research and development on health' amounted to 0.1 % of GDP while 'not elsewhere classified expenditure related to health' stood at 0.3 % of GDP. The largest amount of government expenditure on health was reported by Austria (9.3 % of GDP), followed by Czechia and France (both 9.1 % of GDP) and Germany (8.5 % of GDP). Among the EFTA countries, Iceland reported the largest amount (8.6 % of GDP). The smallest amounts were reported by Hungary (4.4 % of GDP) as well as Latvia (4.8 % of GDP) and Romania (4.9 % of GDP). Switzerland reported the smallest amount among the reporting EU and EFTA countries (2.3 % of GDP). While in some countries health care is organised by the private sector, most countries have government schemes. [...] At the level of the EU, general government 'health' expenditure increased relatively smoothly between 1995 and 2022, amounting to 11.1 % of total expenditure in 1995 and 15.5 % of total expenditure in 2022. As a ratio to GDP, EU government health expenditure amounted to 5.9 % of GDP in 1995 and 7.7 % of GDP in 2022. In 2022, the ratio to GDP decreased by 0.4 percentage points as compared to 2021, when it had peaked at 8.0 % of GDP.

Evidence (2024-01-11): The growing pressure on health system budgets reflects a challenging economic climate, with competing priorities squeezing the public funds available for health. This has been exacerbated by high levels of inflation and the increasing demands of an ageing population. In 2019, prior to the pandemic, OECD countries spent on average 8.8% of GDP on healthcare, a figure relatively unchanged since 2013. By 2021, this proportion had jumped to 9.7%. However, 2022 estimates point to a significant fall to 9.2%, reflecting a reduced need for spending to tackle the pandemic but also the impact of inflation. This increasing pressure on health systems will require major policy change in the coming years. Over the long term, growth in health spending from public sources is projected to be twice the average growth in government revenues (2.6% and 1.3% respectively on average across OECD countries). When combined with the need to invest in health systems for future resilience, this could lead to a potential high of 11.8% of GDP being dedicated to health spending by 2040.

Evidence (2024-02-05): Current healthcare expenditure relative to GDP, 2020 [...] Germany and France had the highest current healthcare expenditure relative to GDP in 2020 [...] Figure 3 provides another analysis of the change in overall healthcare expenditure between 2012 and 2020, focusing on the ratio between this expenditure and GDP. Healthcare expenditure and GDP are both influenced by price changes and so, when combining the two indicators in a ratio, the impact of inflation may be cancelled out to some degree: this depends on the extent to which the price changes related to healthcare expenditure are similar to those experienced for the economy as a whole.
