COVID-19: Chris Hipkins warns July will be 'bumpy' with concerns over vaccine supply and rollout


Governor-General Dame Patsy Reddy got her COVID vaccine on Wednesday.
"I'm feeling perfectly fine, in fact, a little bit surprised as I didn't even feel a prick as the needle entered my arm," she said.
But not all those over 65 will get their jab just yet, said COVID-19 Response Minister Chris Hipkins.
"In terms of the 65-plus group, it's a big group of people, we won't have enough vaccines to be able to do all of them by the end of June, but we can certainly make a start on that group," said Hipkins.
Over-65s in south Auckland are being invited to get the vaccines now, while the rest of the country has to wait a bit, except in Northland where anyone over 50 can already have one.
