"I’m writing this with a dull ache in my left arm, sore from my third COVID
booster. My second was in April when I also got a flu vaccination, which was
funded by my employer. The arrival of the fifth wave of COVID in Aotearoa New
Zealand, as well as the new variant, prompted me to get my booster sorted.
I should also admit I saw news over the weekend that universal access to COVID
vaccinations may come to an end next year. Always keen to get something for
nothing, I booked my booster.
It seems I was ahead of the curve.
New Zealanders, especially those at high risk of becoming severely ill, are now
being encouraged to get their booster before Christmas. Anyone over 30 years
old who hasn’t had a vaccination or an infection in the last six months can get
this booster. And it may be the last free COVID vaccination they receive."
