Turanga Health administered nearly 10 percent of the country's total Covid booster immunisations in four hours during one day in Pātūtahi in April. Community providers are leading the charge for immunisation, says Turanga Health chief executive Reweti Ropiha. 'No appointments, no queues, close to home, and all with a friendly face,' he said. Turanga Health has led the region in its winter preparedness by taking its vaccination drive-through events around the rohe since April. Whānau can get Covid-19, influenza, childhood, and hapū wahine vaccinations at the one-stop venues.
