As Auckland prepares to drop to Alert Level three, the pressure remains high to vaccinate people against Covid-19. The Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says 80 percent of Aucklanders have received their first of two doses so far, and says it's possible 90 percent of Aucklanders could have had their first dose by the time Cabinet reviews the city's alert level three restrictions in two weeks.
