GP still not sure how vaccine rollout will work

From Morning Report, 6:19 am on 9 June 2021

A leading family doctor says there's still confusion about when and where the Covid-19 vaccine will be available.

Cabinet will next week consider further advice about the roll-out of the jab for the wider population and is then expected to make more information available.

Vaccinations are currently available to Groups 1, 2 and 3 - with the final and biggest phase of the roll-out expected to start at the end of July.

NZ College of General Practitioners medical director Bryan Betty told political reporter Katie Scotcher the government needs to provide the public with clear information.
