From Morning Report, 8:10 am on 15 February 2022

A top Māori doctor says Aotearoa should have moved into phase 2 last week. 

Aotearoa will move to the new setting at 11:59pm on Tuesday, which will see changes to the way we have contact traced up until now. 

Dr Rawiri McKree Jansen says Omicron has changed the game and phase 2 allows health workers to do things differently. 

He spoke to Susie Ferguson.
