Māori pandemic group Te Rōpū Whakakaupapa Urutā says the Health Ministry needs to explore new ways to get the Covid vaccination message out.
Member Teresa Wall, a former health ministry policy director, says the messages seem tailored for the total population - and that means minority groups like Māori miss out.
She says the booking systems, whether online, by phone or mail, are also falling short.

Moreover, while 140 of the 149 lots were sold domestically, the two most expensive lots, and three of the top six, were bought by UK merchants. We were blown away. It was just such an incredible day, said Teresa Wall, Napa Valley Vintners senior director of marketing communications.
Also, that $227 is an average wholesale price. The 11,760 bottles of wine auctioned off Saturday will have bigger price tags when they are released to the general public.
