The roll out of the vaccine is being co-ordinated at a national level – you can find details at the Ministry of Health website, health.govt.nz. You can also click here to get the anticipated timing around who will be eligible and when.
The vaccinations will be given at hubs in the region as follows: Paru Paru Road in Nelson and Queen Street in Richmond and well as a hub in Motueka. Some Pharmacies and a few Medical Practices are also administering the vaccine.
The Ministry through our local PHO are driving the process but we continue to be kept informed by them.
