Rt Hon JACINDA ARDERN (Prime Minister): Yes. In particular, I stand by my statement that "The most important thing people can do to prevent themselves, children and vulnerable people getting COVID is to get vaccinated. However, it's important we have medicines to help those who pick up the virus to avoid having to go to hospital." That's why I stand by the Government's decision to ring-fence funding for the purchase of COVID-19 therapeutics, and I welcome the decision by Pharmac to enter an agreement to purchase 60,000 doses of an antiviral molnupiravir. Interim evidence from clinical trials suggests this drug may halve hospitalisations and deaths from COVID-19 and could play a central role in the treatment of mild to moderate cases of the disease in the future. As we evolve in our response to the Delta variant, I'm pleased that we have one more highly promising tool to add to our tool kit.
