Poll: What should the new Mr Whippy-style vaccination buses be called?
Mobile vaccination buses will be rolled out in Auckland from Thursday, in the style of Mr Whippy ice cream vans.
A similar initiative was launched in Australia at the start of the month, and buses became known as “Jabba the Bus”.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has challenged the public to come up with a better name, but has ruled out “Busey McBusface”.
What do you think the vaccination buses should be called?

Hi, I’m Zoeb Ali (Zee), a passionate writer who dreams of using words to inspire, educate, and give back. I’ve created three blogs, each representing a vital part of my heart and purpose:
Pen by Zee: My space for sharing mindful writing, poetry, novels, and stories that inspire and connect.
Charity with Zee: A platform for highlighting fundraising campaigns I lead for causes like Auckland City Mission, Kiwi Harvest, and New Zealand Mental Health.
NZ History with Zee: Dedicated to preserving and sharing New Zealand’s rich history to educate and engage readers.
Currently, I run these blogs on free platforms, but they limit my ability to deliver the high-quality, professional experience my readers and the causes I support deserve. I’m starting this fundraiser to raise funds for paid versions of these websites.
Your donation will directly support:
Professional website designs to enhance content delivery.
Expanding reach to engage more readers and supporters.
Amplifying my charity efforts for greater community impact.
With your help, I can unlock the full potential of these blogs to inspire, educate, and make a difference. Every contribution matters, and together, we can bring this vision to life.
Thank you for supporting my journey. 💙
Warm regards,
Zee
