Hon JAMES SHAW: We have one of the—I'm getting to that—lowest mortality rates in the world because of it, and it was good to hear from the Prime Minister that 40 percent of children have now received the first dose of the vaccine. That is a huge success, but there is no doubt that the reopening of the border does increase the risk of worsening the peak of the Omicron outbreak, and future variants. The Greens called for MIQ prioritisation based on humanitarian grounds—and that includes separated families—and we called for specialist MIQ facilities and that would have enabled more New Zealanders to reconnect with their loved ones, and that would have meant that we would have been able to maintain an elimination strategy long enough for everyone to get their booster shots and for all children to be immunised.
