Dragging The Vaccination Chain
It seems that the Hutt Valley along with the rest of the Wellington region are dragging behind most of the rest of NZ with Covid vaccinations despite easy access to vaccination centres.
The target in NZ for those eligible to be vaccinated is in excess of 90% fully vaccinated by Xmas but the Wellington region is currently at 36.5% fully vaccinated and this compares with our nearest neighbours Wairarapa 45% and Nelson/Marlborough (Tasman) 47%.
We need to broach 90% NZ-wide to be in a position to open up to the world as a reference to the mingling of those vaccinated with other vaccinated people.
It seems that children aged 5-11 will soon be added to those needing to be vaccinated. Perhaps requiring only one innoculation instead of two.
It seems that at least those aged 65-plus and those health compromised will require another booster vaccination next year.
If more variants of Covid emerge it could mean annual vaccinations for all just like the annual influenza vaccinations.
Without doubt there will be restrictions on those not vaccinated and a covid vaccination passport and/or phone ap will be required for proof on vaccination for entry to places and events and travel.
