A woman who organises support for families at the Jet Park Hotel says she feels privileged and honoured to be the first border worker to receive the Covid-19 vaccine in New Zealand.
New Zealand s first 70 border workers have now been vaccinated for Covid-19 under strict infection prevention measures.
Jet Park Hotel worker Lynette Faiva was the first border worker to be vaccinated today.
She works in the hotel s family team, organising support for families.
She said she felt privileged and honoured to receive the vaccine - and felt fine after having the shot in the arm which she described as a tiny little prick .
