    Flu vaccines are being redistributed - as demand increases across the country

    Flu vaccines are being redistributed - as demand increases across the country


    Nearly 900 thousand have been sent to providers - brought forward for those most at risk.

    The Defence Force has released 500 doses to Maori health providers in Whangarei - and Wellington's occupational health service is handing over doses for DHB health staff.

    More vaccines should arrive in New Zealand over the weekend.
