Pacific sport stars are lending a hand to mass vaccination events in Auckland to get more youth and young adults vaccinated.
The 'Rally Your Village' initiative, led by Pacific health provider South Seas' youth group Bubble Gum wrapped up at Auckland's Vodafone Events Centre yesterday, with more than seven thousand people immunised over six days.
More events in the community are being orgainsed, and sports stars like the former All Black flanker Bradley Mika are hitting the phones to encourage people to get their jabs.
