Hon Dr AYESHA VERRALL: Vaccination rates for older New Zealanders have been one of the success stories of our COVID response: 99 percent of people over the age of 65 are fully vaccinated, and more than 85 percent have now been boosted. We know that getting a booster shot is the best defence against Omicron, so I urge anyone who is eligible for a booster but hasn't got around to it yet to take the time to head out to one of the hundreds of vaccination sites up and down the country and get boosted.
