Also, only 51 percent of our 5 to 11 year olds are vaccinated with one dose: for Pasifika, 43 percent; for Māori only 31 percent. Hundreds of our schools now have active COVID cases and, with close contacts no longer needing to isolate, there's a huge risk of infection to our vulnerable children and their whānau—especially the under-fives, who cannot be vaccinated. Test-To-Stay has been used overseas to manage infections in schools, as an alternative to isolating close contacts. We hope the Government will urgently introduce this at all schools across Aotearoa. Whānau are greatly concerned about sending their children to school; we must do everything we can to ensure our schools are safe at this time.
