Free flu vaccine for Māori and Pasifika age 55 to 64

31 March 2022

 

Māori and Pacific peoples aged 55 to 64 years will be eligible for a free flu vaccine this year, amid concerns that New Zealand may have a severe flu season this coming this winter. Previously the age cut-off for people was 65. 

Our borders are opening soon and we encourage our communities to protect themselves from both the flu and COVID by getting vaccinated. 

If you need support to access the COVID vaccine, please email us at tiaki@taikura.org.nz. If you have any questions about getting the flu vaccine, please talk to your doctor or healthcare providers.
