Covid-19: Confusion over distribution of one million masks for vulnerable whānau

From Morning Report, 8:40 am on 17 February 2021

Some of the biggest Māori health providers in Auckland and Taranaki are wondering who got the one million surgical masks health officials promised for vulnerable whānau.

On Monday they got an email from the Ministry of Health's deputy director-general of Māori Health saying the masks would be distributed the following day to help people protect themselves from Covid-19.
