There were 18,092 first and second vaccine doses administered yesterday, made up of 6,319 first doses and 11,773 second doses.
To date, 92% of eligible people in New Zealand have had their first dose and 85% are fully vaccinated. The Ministry of Health has now issued more than two million My Vaccine Passes.
More than half of all vaccinated New Zealanders now have their pass and we wish to thank everyone who has already got theirs for their efforts.
We expect demand for My Vaccine Passes to keep increasing and we realise the importance of improving access to the pass for all New Zealanders.
