The Prime Minister has received her first dose of the Covid-19 vaccine today, saying it was "pretty pain free".

At the same time there is still some frustration and worry amongst over-65s in Wellington, as they wait to be called up for their Covid-19 vaccine.

The Capital and Coast DHB says it is ahead of schedule with its overall vaccine roll-out, but only a fraction of the over-65s group has had it.
