2. The fleet of vaxx campervans had their creative artwork completed last Sunday and made their debut to 4 vaccination sites this week.

4. Our largest drive-thru in the country, Park n Ride have now administered 104,824 doses! To all the teams involved, keep up the hard work!

5. On another big achievement, the Mount Wellington Vaccination Centre has achieved a 150,000 dose milestone! Pai te mahi to the Mount Wellington team!

Even Superman and Supergirl know that Covid vaccinations will help save the world! These guys showed up to get their second vaccines at Warkworth Medical Centre yesterday.

Today we say sota tale to one of our valued colleagues, Gloria Faesen Kloet, who goes on parental leave. Thank you for all your valuable and contributing efforts to the Pacific vaccination programme. Enjoy a wonderful and restful baby break!

Have a lovely weekend everyone, good luck for Super Saturday and thank you to everyone for all your hard work!
