Health data from Saturday show that 81 percent of the eligible population have received their second Covid-19 vaccine.
Auckland is close to reaching 90 percent full vaccinated - currently just one percentage point away. However, there are a number of DHBs lagging far behind that magic 90 percent - including Tair?whiti, currently at 70 percent and West Coast at 73 percent.
But - even if 90 percent of eligible people are fully vaccinated one in four New Zealanders will still be without that protection against the pandemic.
Timothy Brown reports.
