3,000 Auckland hospital workers yet to be vaccinated!

Michael Morrah reports:

Newshub can reveal more than 3000 hospital workers in Auckland – the epicentre of the Delta outbreak – still haven’t had a single vaccine jab.

It comes as a nurse with COVID-19 was infectious for four days while at work at Auckland City Hospital, and staff were exposed to an infected patient at North Shore Hospital.

Hospital staff are part of vaccination group 2. They are deemed high-risk and have been able to get a vaccine since March.

There should have been a simple policy in place from earlier this year – all DHB staff must be vaccinated due to the nature of their jobs.
