From Morning Report, 7:28 am on 26 February 2021

Political pressure is mounting on the Government to prioritise vaccinating South Aucklanders against Covid-19.

The National Party is joining calls from community health providers to bump the area, which is home to the international airport and MIQ facilities, to the top of the queue.

It is currently grappling with the latest outbreak of Covid-19 and was the centre of the August cluster last year.

Political reporter Katie Scotcher has this report.
