Northland Covid-19 Vaccine Programme Information - check online

Oliver Neighbourly Lead from One Tree Point

Please note that the information printed on page 11 in this week's Whangārei Leader is already out of date. For example, earlier this week eligibility has been extended to people aged 50 years and over.
Accurate and up-to-date vaccine program information can be found on this Northland DHB web page.
In this fluid situation it's best to regularly check the online resources, which are constantly updated, rather than relying on printed information that is already over a week old before it reaches us.
Also, to make it easier for vaccination providers, please let's make good use of the appointment booking options by phone or email, so that vaccine usage can be properly planned and the right number of doses prepared. The Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine used in NZ requires cold storage and is only good for a few days once thawed and mixed. If we just walk in at random, it makes it so much harder to plan and minimise wastage.
