From Checkpoint, 6:25 pm on 24 August 2021

A 100-year-old was among those vaccinated against Covid-19 on the remote Taranaki-King Country boundary at Mōkau today.

Mere Wihongi's old enough to remember the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic - which killed 9,000 New Zealanders - and was adamant she was getting the shot.

RNZ Taranaki Whanganui reporter Robin Martin was there.
