As New Zealand waits and watches the potential spread of the contagious Omicron variant, Research New Zealand polled Kiwis on whether they are taking a more cautious approach and avoiding activities due to concerns about catching Omicron.

Research New Zealand Managing Partner Emanuel Kalafatelis joins the show to cover off the results of the survey.
